Projects
Things I've built
Built an end-to-end natural-language processing system that parses free-text input and writes structured records to a relational database. Managed the full ML lifecycle - dataset curation, model training, performance evaluation, and deployment - balancing accuracy against real system constraints.
Created a technically complex generative artwork accepted into the Hack Club public Blot gallery - a collaboration with MIT's Center for Bits and Atoms. Recognized with an award for excellence in programming and design by Hack Club and MIT.
Experience
Where I've contributed
- Developed computer vision, autonomous path planning, and motor integration systems in C++ and Python.
- Coordinated development across mechanical and electrical sub-teams to deliver a competition-ready robot.
- Earned 2nd place out of 36 teams at the FIRST Robotics Reading Competition (2024).
- Co-founded and taught an introductory programming and circuitry course using Raspberry Pi.
- Designed hands-on lessons making hardware and software fundamentals accessible to younger students.
- Served as peer tutor supporting members with debugging, problem-solving, and code quality.
- Participated in hackathons (2022-2023) and co-organized the annual hackathon in 2024.
