<aside> π£ I'm a part-time web developer, full-time college student, and logistics nerd. Using design thinking, I'm inspired to create solutions to problems βΒ from small inconveniences to large-scale issues, all to make people's lives easier, faster, and more efficient.

As a graduating high school student from theΒ Ultimate Incubator, a High School Fellow at Stanford University, and a Computer Science Major at USF, I enjoy employing design thinking when solving problems. This philosophy has helped in many of my projects in education, including fundraising $35K to build a school in Nepal, researching social robotics in AI with the Stanford Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Education (AIRE) Lab, and more.
As I grow in my college career, I'm excited to learn more about problems I come across for me, my friends, my school, and my community, and what I want to do to solve them.
From my open-source work, check outΒ Register: a high-quality Discord bot for event planning. Or, another Discord bot, Rollup, for keeping clean channels using threading.
Some cool, yet-to-be-announced projects I'm working on include a game-changing security feature for Discord, and an educational/corporate accountability tool, allowing admins to better communicate with their students + staff on policy changes. Taking feedback empowers these groups in their self-advocacy, an important skill in the 21st century.
I don't care what is β what should be?
