About Me

I'm a sophomore Computer Science student at Georgia Tech, specializing in Intelligence and Information Internetworks. My interests lie at the intersection of software engineering and artificial intelligence — particularly in building scalable systems and researching ethical AI applications.

As the founder and CTO of Univo and a former SWE intern at Hachi, I've built and shipped full-stack applications using modern frameworks like React, Node.js, Firebase, and Redis. I’ve also contributed to open-source community tools and am currently engaged in AI research on model jailbreak evaluation and automated algorithm design.

Outside of code, I explore new AI papers, play soccer, practice percussion, and design platforms to empower the communities I care about.
