bio
I am a senior at Horace Mann School passionate about augmenting the prevalence of coding in my generation. On campus I am the president for Science Olympiad, TEAMS (Tests in Engineering Aptitude Mathematics and Science), and Model Congress and the captain for the FRC Robotics Team.
The past two summers I worked at Columbia’s Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Lab, working to treat Osteoarthritis through coding a commercially adapted program capable of modeling imaged cartilage cells in a finite element solver to calculate deformation under various stresses. Poster Link | Paper Link
I am also a self-taught Rubik’s Cuber (20 seconds personal best) and magician. I specialize in pulling cards out of oranges. I’m currently working on how to get oranges out of cards.
Every year I travel to India during my school breaks and teach computer science at a school for underprivileged children. I started a program with Codecademy to further the student’s computer science knowledge while I am away.
In my free time, I enjoy playing golf (on Horace Mann’s Varsity team since freshman year), ping-pong (2x Horace Mann School Champion), and Spikeball (I met the founder at a tournament last summer!).
I hope you enjoy reading more about me.
