about

I've always had a curiosity for understanding the inner workings of everyday objects since a young age. Over time I have developed new skills to better understand the world around me. Many of my current and past projects are a way for me to build upon this.

My main focus these days is building efficient applications that combine techniques from large data management and storage to efficient algorithms to retrieve and interpret this data in a personalized fashion.

Outside of this I enjoy going on hikes, cooking new things, or just hanging out with friends.
