PORTFOLIO
I'm a a Computer Engineering & Computer Science student from Boston. I love problem-solving and building cool stuff! I'm currently pursuing a career in software engineering, where I can leverage my passion for programming and creativity to build innovative and meaningful projects.
My early background focused on programming and developing games in game engines like Unity and Godot. I was obssessed with implementing procedural generation and boosting game juice within my games. Nowadays, I work in fullstack engineering with interests in AI/ML and embedded systems. I also enjoy creating 3D models and animations in Blender, as well as design websites and graphics with Three.js.
When I'm not on the computer (which is rare), I'm usually running, playing soccer, or rock climbing with friends.☺️
Led the development of a viral social media finance app, using Next.js, TypeScript, that gamifies saving money and helps users build better spending habits alongside their peers, achieving a top 5 finalists out of 105 teams (HackIllinois 2025).
