About Me

My love for technology started with Roblox and simple typing games, but grew to a lifelong passion for computer science and mathematics. What keeps me hooked is the ability to play a hands-on role in the ideation, creation, and execution of anything I can imagine. That's why when I'm not in class or doing an internship, I'm always building something that improves my own life or sharpens my technical and mathematical expertise.


Whether it's analyzing data to uncover patterns or building intelligent systems that adapt to the world around them, I'm driven by the belief that technology should empower people.
