Full-stack developer · CS @ University at Buffalo · Amherst, NY

Background

I'm Charles — a computer science student at the University at Buffalo and a full-stack developer based in Amherst, NY. I build things that are fast, reliable, and solve real problems.

My work spans distributed systems, fintech and ecommerce tooling, web3 infra and high-performance websites.

I care about performance, clean architecture, and shipping things that actually work and make a difference.

When I'm not writing code, I'm probably playing CS2 or League of Legends, reading the latest huggingface benchmarks, architecting new ventures, or figuring out how to automate something that shouldn't take as long as it does (which is usually the case).
