About Me

From a young age, I have always been torn between the certainty of logic and the wonder of creativity. As I was studying chess variations, I was also sight-reading sheet music. As I was coding websites, I was also sketching their layouts. Computer science’s cross-section of design and engineering allows these two subjects to intermix and enhance one another and is why I hope to continue exploring this field in the future. Outside of academics, I am an avid chess player, digital and physical artist, and an aficiando for soccer (Go Barca!).

2025 and Beyond

As 2025 approaches, I hope to continue gaining experience in the tech field while also combining my passions.
