I’m a student at MIT studying EECS from Charlotte, NC.

I’m passionate about doing cool things that make people feel good. Specifically, I’m interested in IoT/embedded systems, AI/computer vision, wearables, and BCI for health and consumer applications. I also love think a lot about ethics, political philosophy, playgrounds (or the lack thereof for adults), and other stuff.
