What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth, innovation, and collaboration in technology.

I'm a dedicated computer science and economics student at Brown University, expected to graduate in May 2026. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in data structures, algorithms, and statistical analysis, which I have applied in various research and engineering projects. I thrive on challenges and enjoy leveraging technology to solve complex problems.

As a Research Data Analyst at The Annenburg Institute, I designed advanced regression models to analyze extensive datasets, recovering critical information through innovative data scraping techniques. My role as Lead Engineer for the Khanna Labs website allowed me to spearhead the development of a dynamic platform that enhanced research communication. I am passionate about using my skills to create impactful solutions in the tech and finance sectors.
