About me
I’m a CS Major at Cornell University interested in starting my own company and working in the tech industry.
My main interests in the tech industry reside in artificial intelligence and virtual reality.
I was first introduced to programming through Lego robots in 6th grade. I took classes in high school for coding including AP CS A and AP CS Principles. During my first year in college at UMass Amherst I took two computer science discrete math courses. I will continue with more CS courses in the fall at Cornell. Throughout the years I’ve also completed many personal coding projects, some of which I have featured on the portfolio page.
The computer science courses I took at UMass were CS 240 and CS 250. In CS 240 we learned about counting problems, probability definitions, distributions, types of random variables, Markov and Chebyshev bounds, Laws of large numbers, central limit theorem, probabilistic reasoning, Bayes’ Law, Markov Chains, Bayesian Networks, and Markov Decision Processes. In CS 250 we learned Number Theory, Induction, Trees, Searching, Regular Expressions, Finite-State Machines, Computability.
What I do
As a student, I am focusing on classes during the school year, but I continue to work on side projects in my free time and full-time in the summer.
Javascript Projects
These make up the majority of my portfolio at the moment. I plan to continue making javascript projects as P5.js offers a great visual library to use.
Web Development
I am available for freelance web development, and continue to work on my skills by taking relevant courses, learning more for backend dev, and experimenting with new techniques.
App Development
I am working with a friend of mine on a series of casual tycoon games for IOS. Our company is called Modular Games and I'll feature some of those apps in my portfolio.

Software Development Intern
I worked with a team of software engineers on certain projects including an automated SQL database error reporter, for which I wrote code in javascript that would interact with HTML and SQL as well. I also assisted developers through code review.

Tutoring
Math Tutor
During high school I worked as a math tutor for a student in middle school. While the material wasn't particularly hard, it gave me a chance to practice different forms of teaching, and I learned how to break concepts down into fundamentals and explain them in different ways.
