Bio

I'm obsessed with mastering the unknown. It just feels good, you know? As an incoming undergraduate student exploring Computer Science and Management Science at Stanford, I'm fascinated with the relationship between computers and our brains. The ability of this interconnection to innovatively and efficiently solve problems is really what keeps me ticking! I have experience in various computer languages and many of their applications — from making basic games in C++ to creating AI algorithms to detect Parkinson's in Java. My significant leadership experiences both in and out of the classroom helpfully complement my intellectual inclinations, enabling me to effectively guide and learn from my team. I am eager to discover the interactions between software, health, and management as I progress through my educational and professional careers. With a broad set of interests along with existing and developing skills in these very fields, I look forward to exciting work and research opportunities where I can make a difference — and master the unknown!
