about
Background
I'm a business and data science major at Carnegie Mellon University, currently splitting time between Pittsburgh, PA and Portland, OR. I've always been pulled toward the places where different disciplines collide — music and technology, data and design, finance and creativity.
That curiosity has led me to build things like fintech platforms, computer vision tools, and whatever else sits at an interesting intersection. I care about making things that feel intentional, whether that's a product, a photograph, or an essay.
Now
Right now I'm building projects across fintech and AI — tools like Tonica, Crescendo, and Streamect — while writing about the things I can't stop thinking about: gene editing ethics, the death of physical currency, how we decide who gets to see the real versions of ourselves. Most of my time goes toward making things and figuring out what I actually think.
Elsewhere
Outside of school and projects I spend time with music, photography, and fashion — they're all just different ways of expressing the same ideas. I write because it forces me to be honest, and I build because I like seeing ideas become real. I think the best work comes from people who refuse to stay in one lane.
