About Me
I'm a Computer Science student with a foundation in engineering. I bring first-principles problem solving and an engineering mindset to software development — building everything from low-level systems to full-stack web apps.
Currently deep in algorithms, systems programming, and anything AI-adjacent. I write code the same way I think: fast, messy first draft, then obsessively refined.
Algorithms & DS
Solving problems with the right data structures and algorithms. Currently obsessed with graph traversal and dynamic programming.
Embedded Systems
Building hardware-software bridges using microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. Where Python meets the physical world.
Full-Stack Dev
Building end-to-end web apps with React, Node.js, FastAPI, and whatever database makes sense. No "it works on my machine" excuses.
Python & JS
Primary languages. Python for everything backend, scripting, and data. JavaScript when the browser needs to be impressed.
Projects

Today
Quantum State
My GPA is currently in a superposition. It is both good and bad until I actually check the portal.

AGI Thoughts
If AI takes our jobs, can it at least take my Calculus II midterm first? Asking for a friend.

Eng Life
Sleep schedule is currently O(n!) where n is the number of assignments due tomorrow.
Idea
Smart Toaster?
An AI toaster that refuses to toast bread if it detects you're sad. "You need a salad, Dave."
Lab Update
Robotics Startup
With AI taking the world by storm, how can I take advantage of it to help start my robotics startup?
