I'm a senior at Stuyvesant High School in New York City (expected graduation: June 2026). I focus on computer science, robotics, and applied AI research, with strong interests in education technology and STEM outreach.
My programming experience includes Python (TensorFlow, Flask, NumPy, Matplotlib), Swift (iOS frontend), Java (Android and FTC robotics), C++, JavaScript (Svelte and React), and SQL.
Outside academics, I enjoy travel, music, Model UN, international politics, tennis, and competitive coding.

Presenting my final project for SHAPE
My journey in FIRST began in FLL and evolved into FTC through the Forest Hills Robotics League. I have stayed in the FIRST community for years, growing from student programmer to team captain.
I am the captain of team #8721 Mighty Mechanics and previously served as co-lead programmer. Our community-based FTC team represents NYC in high-level competition and outreach.
In 2024, we advanced to the FTC World Championships in Houston. In 2025, I was recognized as a FIRST Inspire Robotics Dean's List Semi-Finalist (NYC).
As lead software contributor, I develop autonomous systems in Java using the FTC SDK. I implemented a fully custom motion library including a holonomic PurePursuit algorithm, plus additional advanced robotics algorithms used in competition.
