Check out my site and linked sites to learn about my interests & experiences.
Intro
Originally from the sunny suburbs of Winter Park, Florida, I graduated from Georgia Tech with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science in May 2020. My major-specific concentrations were in Systems Architecture and Human-Computer Interaction. After working as an iOS Software Engineer at Apple for four years, I'm now an MBA Candidate at Harvard Business School. This summer, I'm interning at Databricks. Check out my latest work.

About
In high school, I spent the majority of my time rowing, playing the violin, and Boy Scouting. In college, I was most involved in GT's iOS Club, the Delta Chi Fraternity, the College of Computing as a teaching assistant, Georgia Tech Student Ambassadors, and Omicron Delta Kappa leadership honor society. While living in San Francisco, I found community playing recreational dodgeball with OutLoud Sports.
