About

Hi, I'm Tyler

I'm a Computer Science student at Iowa State University and a Machine Learning Engineer Intern at Cisco, working at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. My work spans ML research, LLM evaluation, code translation systems, Docker-based automation, and full-stack products built for real users.

What I'm focused on

Right now I'm focused on ai systems, cybersecurity, machine learning, and developer tooling. I enjoy working across the stack — building interfaces people enjoy using and systems that stay dependable as products grow.

I'm especially interested in roles and projects where engineering, product thinking, and design quality all matter.

Clarity over complexity

I prefer systems and interfaces that are easy to understand, maintain, and extend.

Ship with polish

Good software should feel reliable and intentional — not just functional.

Own the outcome

From idea to release, I care about the full experience and the details that make it work.
