About Me

👋 Hi, I'm Sam Ebaugh — a Computer Science major at UCF and R&D Intern at OneEthos, passionate about building intelligent, data-driven systems that make technology more useful and human.

I specialize in full-stack development, AI integration, and scalable data pipelines, bridging backend infrastructure with real-world impact. From designing production-ready applications (React, Next.js, Node.js, Flutter) to orchestrating complex ETL and AI workflows (FastAPI, Gemini, OpenAI, MongoDB, AWS), I focus on creating systems that are technically elegant and practically valuable.

I've led and contributed to projects like ScholarKnights, a full-stack platform for UCF students to find and host study sessions, and SharkVision, an AI-powered presentation coach that won 🥇 1st Place Overall at SharkByte Hackathon 2025.

At OneEthos, I'm helping architect a nationwide small-business data platform that uses AI to discover and verify sustainable organizations — blending engineering precision with purpose-driven innovation.

I'm driven by a simple goal: to build technology that scales intelligently, empowers people, and leaves the world a little better designed than I found it.

📬 Let's connect — I'm always open to new ideas, collaborations, and opportunities in software engineering, AI, or data systems.
