Hi! I'm a junior at MIT studying CS + AI, Chemistry, and Business. In a previous life, I was building software at Apple on the Vision Products team and autonomous drone systems at the US Army.
I dabble in research when I can. I'm a Barry M. Goldwater Scholar and have published 12 papers in international peer-reviewed journals. While my research interests are field agnostic, I enjoy analytical chemistry, affective computing, and embedded systems.
Long term, I have a couple of delusional goals such as accelerating artifical photosynthesis and carbon sequestration. I'd like to solve climate change in my lifetime. But at present, I'm building robots ๐ฆพ and software ๐งช for the life sciences ๐ฌ and making biochemical synthesis 10 times faster.
If any of my yapping interests you, please do drop me a note!
