About Me

I'm a Computer Science major with a minor in Data Science. I'm passionate about building technology that makes a positive impact. When I'm not studying, I'm hacking on side projects, competing in hackathons, or tutoring fellow students.
I've won 3 hackathons in the last year
My dorm room has more monitors than furniture
I tutor 5 students weekly in data structures
I've read every Paul Graham essay twice
