​

Hey there! I'm a Stanford undergraduate interested in studying computer science and electrical engineering. I have research and project experience in machine learning, circuit design, CAD modeling, and internet/computer security.

​

When I'm not studying or doing research, I love to tinker around, do photography, cook, and write.

Research

My primary research interests are in the theory of machine-learning models, as well as applying them to embedded systems. My past projects have involved anything from power engineering to IoT communications.

Tinkering

Beyond research, I simply love making things, whether it be an arc welder from old microwaves, Tesla coils, or simply tumbling rocks.

AI Art

I'm a big fan of scientific art! I've modified an existing Style Transfer library and used some artistic liberty to create my own works.

Photography

More than just food for my machine-learning painter, photography for me is a combination of art, strategy, and technology.

Cooking

To me, cooking is a form of edible engineering! In addition to cooking Thanksgiving dinner for my family each year, I am also interested in various forms of contemporary cooking, like Sous Vide

Writing

I've experimented with many different writing styles, ranging from satire to non-fiction, from prose to poetry. To see a current writing project I'm working on, scroll down! 

Orca Research

Over the summer of my senior year, I wrote a research paper detailing the entire history of captive orcas.

Deciphering Stanford Clock Tower

When I visited Stanford, I became super interested in the mechanisms of their clock tower. Take a look at what I was able to figure out!

FUN!!!
