I'm a senior studying CS + Math @ UT Austin under the Turing Scholars CS Honors program 🤘. I love working in the intersection of software engineering, biology, and ML/AI, but am constantly growing my knowledge in computer vision, systems, and entrepreneurship.
Outside of school, I love playing and competing in tennis 🎾, working out 💪, cooking 🍳, watching movies (especially animation) 🎬, and travelling ✈️.
