About

I'm a third-year student studying computer science and mathematics at Northeastern University, with plans to graduate in spring 2027. On top of my studies, I am currently working as the head of web development at Northeastern Electric Racing, and am the lead developer for the Adopt A Character program at The Unicode Consortium. Additionally, I am a teaching assistant for the accel section of Fundamentals of Computer Science 2 and the treasurer for the Alpine Ski Team. My main technical interests include database design, backend web development, machine learning, and object-oriented design. Non-technically, you will find me on the slopes of ski mountains, hiking through the woods, or in an obscure coffee shop in Boston!
