I turn code into meaningful creations.

about

I'm a junior studying Computer Science at UCLA . This summer, I'm joining Lindy as a software engineering intern, and I also conduct research in UCLA's HCI Research Lab , where I explore AI systems for scientific hypothesis generation. I care deeply about building responsive, accessible interfaces that make complex systems feel clear and usable.

Outside of building, I enjoy weightlifting, time with my dog, and exploring the Lands Between.
