Software engineer building full-stack applications. B.S. Software Engineering from Kennesaw State, Magna Cum Laude. Starting M.S. Computer Science at Georgia Tech in Fall 2026.
Hello I am Ali! I am based in Kennesaw, GA. Graduated from KSU in December 2025 with a B.S. in Software Engineering and a Minor in CS, Magna Cum Laude, 3.81 GPA. Starting a M.S. in Computer Science at Georgia Tech in Fall 2026.
My background spans both sides of the dev cycle. I spent six months as a Software QA Engineer at General Devices testing a real mobile health app inside an Agile team, then designed and shipped a live production website for Marietta Tire Company — custom domain, SMS notifications, serverless forms, the whole thing. School projects across frontend, backend, and databases fill out the rest.
Outside of screens I'm usually at the gym, watching or playing soccer or basketball, gaming, or adding to my Pokémon card collection.

Desktop tool for software teams to track requirements, risk logs, and effort hours across the full dev lifecycle. I led a team of five — custom dark-themed Tkinter UI, JSON persistence, and as much of a lesson in coordination as in actually writing code.
Tested the CAREpoint Go mobile health app through functional, regression, and usability testing. Built test plans, filed bugs with repro steps, and worked inside a real Agile team across sprints and retros. My first look at what production software quality actually looks like.
Sponsor-backed capstone where we built a responsive web app prototype for a real client. I translated sponsor feedback into requirements, wireframes, and a Figma prototype, then contributed across frontend, backend, and database layers through sprint-based collaboration.
Full-stack accounting app built with React, Django REST, and PostgreSQL. Core CRUD flows, role-based access across three user levels, password management, and an audit log so every action was traceable. Shipped with full project docs and a demo playlist.
Wrapped up my undergraduate degree with a Minor in Computer Science and a 3.81 GPA. Four years of classes, internships, team projects, and figuring out how to actually build things. Now on to Georgia Tech for a master's in CS.
Designed, built, and deployed a full production website for a local tire and auto shop. Custom domain, SSL, quote and appointment flows with email and SMS via Netlify serverless functions and Twilio, mobile-first design. Currently live and actively maintained.
Full-stack production website built for a local tire shop. Designed the UI for mobile-first responsiveness, implemented quote and appointment request flows with real-time SMS and email notifications via Netlify serverless functions and Twilio API. Deployed with custom domain, SSL, and continues to serve customer requests daily.
Full-stack accounting application built with React and Django REST. Implemented core financial features (invoices, expense tracking), role-based access control across three user levels, secure authentication with JWT, and audit logging for compliance. Deployed with Docker and documented with demo videos.
Sponsor-backed capstone project for a real client. Led requirements gathering and translated feedback into Figma wireframes. Implemented responsive frontend components with JavaScript/Vite, built backend services with Python, and managed PostgreSQL database schema—all within sprint-based delivery cycles.
Desktop project management tool built with Python and Tkinter for software engineering teams. Led a team of five developers through design, implementation, and delivery. Managed requirements tracking, risk logs, and effort estimation—learning as much about team coordination and Git workflows as the code itself.
I'm open to opportunities and always happy to discuss interesting projects.
