About

I’m from San Diego, where I grew up in the ocean (surfing and diving, mostly, though now I love laying out and napping in the sun on the sand), playing soccer, skating, doing photography, and generally finishing schoolwork early and then distracting myself (I once finished a final early and then taught myself to unicycle outside the window where other students were still taking the final. My teacher did not appreciate my lust for learning new skills). I went to Stanford from 2018 to 2023, where I studied Biology (major), Classics (minor), and Computer Science (master’s). After a gap year abroad (in Germany, is it abroad if you’re a citizen?) I moved to San Francisco to pursue the unique California / Stanford / CS dream of working at a startup. You’ll find evidence of the rest of me here.

Generally I like thinking about productivity/quality time (things like spending less time on social media, reading more, being present), building fun things (social media apps, photography rigs), being outside, and more. I frequently find myself interested in “random” things (recently I read a lot about Orcas and Octopus. My roommate says they’re my special interest but I know I have a myriad of others).
