about me

I am a developer that loves three things: learning, creating, and having fun. As a result, you'll always see me experimenting with new technologies for my next crazy idea and bugging others to collaborate on projects. There are three fields in particular that excite me.

web dev

limitless creations that can be accessed by anyone with an internet connection and a url

machine learning

the ability to discover patterns in the real world with nothing but a bunch of matrices

psychology

the power to understand who you are creating for, so you know how to create for them

work experience and projects

Using React and Gatsby, I created the website for all incoming participants. To ensure equal use, the site has been iterated to pass reviews for accessibility and cross-browser compatibility.

data science intern - data+

With the support of Duke's Data+ program, I spent ten weeks working with fellow students to explore how physician-patient interaction affects medical decision-making.

Using classification models and topic modeling, we were able to extract which parts of conversation were associated with differences in treatment decision.
