About Me



I am a Cornell Computer Science major with a strong foundation in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data engineering. As a dedicated developer and AI/ML enthusiast, I have hands-on experience in big data analytics, clustering, recommendation systems, and automation of AI workflows.
During my AI/ML internship at Ecentria Holdings, I improved machine learning algorithms and enhanced data-driven solutions for OpticsPlanet.com, while also executing contractual work on n8n AI workflow automations and coding personal projects like medical agentic retrieval-augmented generation systems. I am actively seeking AI and ML internships to further leverage my skills in software development, data analysis, and AI-driven solutions.
With a passion for coding, wrestling, and competitive sports like judo and ping pong, I thrive in dynamic, collaborative environments. I am eager to contribute to innovative projects in AI, ML, and data engineering, making impactful contributions to technology and business growth.
In my spare time, I enjoy quality time with family and friends, lifting weights, cooking + eating great food, and saving the world.
