About Me

I am a third-year student at the University of Chicago studying computer science with a strong foundation in backend development and growing experience in frontend development. I have previously worked as a software engineering intern at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in the Talmo Lab. I'm particularly excited about building real-world applications that leverage deep learning models. I'm now looking for opportunities to apply my programming and problem-solving skills to create impactful software solutions. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!
