About Me
Hi, I'm Sabrina! I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago and earned my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan. Go Blue!
I've always been curious about how the technology we interact with every day actually works beneath the surface. That curiosity has grown into a strong interest in building user-focused, reliable, and accessible systems. With full-stack and platform experience ranging from developing large-scale fraud mitigation features to deploying MCP servers, I enjoy working on scalable products that have real-world impact. I am especially interested in accessibility, system reliability, and applied AI, and I care deeply about building technology that improves the user experience in meaningful ways.
Outside of the classroom and workplace, I love spending time in nature, whether that's backpacking through scenic trails or snowboarding in the mountains. Taking time to step outside helps balance out the amount of time I spend sitting in front of my computer .
It's great to have you here. Feel free to explore the tabs below to learn more about my skills, experience, and education!

Software Engineering Intern at Target Corp.
Contributed to fraud prevention and improved app functionality in the Android app Maestro by developing a full-stack serial number scanning feature, projected to save $45M-$160M annually, and enabling image display for regulated items through backend and UI updates. Ensured feature reliability and stability by writing Kotlin unit tests, Compose UI tests, and conducting regression testing. Enhanced global usability for 40,000+ employees by integrating localization support, while also implementing Grafana and Kibana for performance monitoring and backend diagnostics. - Jan 2025 - May 2025
Software Developer at Obce Na Wu
Developed 30+ RESTful Flask API endpoints and engineered a PostgreSQL database with 15+ relational tables to power core admin features for a language-learning platform. Built a system logging feature using SQLAlchemy to track backend events, enabling future diagnostics through filtering and UI integration. Worked closely with frontend developers and client stakeholders to refine API designs and database schemas in response to evolving platform needs. - May 2024 - August 2024
Software Engineering (Platform Engineering) Intern at Ithaka Harbors, Inc.
Deployed an app to generate dynamic AWS configuration profiles with automated documentation and repository mirroring. Built and maintained GitLab CI/CD pipelines to streamline deployment for 10+ apps, and migrated 12 apps from Sidecar to Sirius, identifying $120K in projected annual savings using VMware CloudHealth. Enabled New Relic monitoring for 60 production Kubernetes apps by configuring external secrets and AWS SSM access.Deployed an app to generate dynamic AWS configuration profiles with automated documentation and repository mirroring.
