About
Who I am.
I study Data Science at UC Irvine (graduating June 2027) and spend most of my time building things that sit at the edge of machine learning and engineering. I have shipped a Bayesian-optimized trading algorithm, mapped fast food access for 6.8M students, analyzed 3D cell imaging data, and built products people actually use. Currently VP of Data@UCI and always working on something new. Outside of school, I enjoy working out, playing basketball, and get into way too many random hobbies. Scroll down to see all of them!
