About

I take messy real-world data, make it usable, and protect the people behind it. That's the kind of engineering I want to do.

I'm a rising high-school senior and aspiring software engineer. I've built and sold a SaaS automation product to a paying business, deployed a full-stack server that integrates directly with Anthropic's Claude, and prototyped a zero-knowledge cryptography system for healthcare privacy.

I've spent six-plus years on a world-ranked competitive VEX robotics team writing real-time C++ control code, and I teach what I learn, 160+ students coached across two robotics organizations.
