About Me
I'm a recent Computer Science graduate from UCLA with a passion for pushing the boundaries of what's possible with AI and machine learning. My journey began with curiosity about how Netflix recommendations work, and it's evolved into building transformer models and computer vision systems that solve real problems.
When I'm not debugging code or training neural networks, you'll find me analyzing tennis matches for UCLA's athletic program or mentoring high school students through exploretech.LA. I believe technology should be accessible and impactful—whether that's helping 25,000+ students navigate course selection through Bruinwalk or developing AI tools that streamline business operations.

What Drives Me
Beyond the code and algorithms, here's what motivates me to push boundaries and create meaningful technology
Impact-Driven Solutions
The intersection of technology and human impact fascinates me. I'm motivated by creating solutions that genuinely matter.
Elegant Problem Solving
My approach combines rigorous technical execution with user-centered design—because the most elegant algorithm means nothing if it doesn't solve a real problem.
Mentorship & Teaching
Tennis enthusiast and data analyst for UCLA's Division I program. Mentor for 500+ high school students interested in STEM careers.
Continuous Learning
Open source contributor passionate about democratizing AI education. Always experimenting with the latest ML research papers (currently obsessing over attention mechanisms).
