about.
When I'm not scouring the internet satiating my undying curiosity, I pursue my interest in computer science. My passion lies in building products that have the potential for massive social impact. Read my blog.
Currently, I'm learning about and interested in full-stack web development and highly available distributed systems. I just graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a Master's degree in Computer Science.
Beyond my work, I have interests in algorithm visualization, open-source contribution, and crafting user-centric applications. Although I no longer have much time for gaming, some of my all-time favorite games include RollerCoaster Tycoon, Final Fantasy Tactics, FFVII: Crisis Core, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Burnout Paradise, and Minecraft.
