I am currently a UCSD senior studying under Revelle College. I enjoy puzzles and problem solving. I'm fascinated by space; when I was a kid, I wanted to be an astronaut. In school I am studying physics because I
enjoy the problems that the field brings. Physics also satisfies my curiousity about the world and how it works. As I've grown older I have also developed an interest in computers and software. Studying CSE in
school, and on my own, I've found that I have a lot of fun with software and the type of problem solving that it requires. More than this, I've found that I have a particularly strong talent for
developing software that's greater than any of my other skills. This love and skill that I've found in problem solving and software is what I will persue as my career for the foreseeable future.
Fun Facts
Here are some quick and fun facts about me! I love to play the piano but it's been hard for me to find time recently :(. I really enjoy the outdoors and everything it has to offer. I played competitive soccer for 11 years growing up. In high school I did water polo, swimming, and dive. I love surfing, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing...but I also like to sleep and stay home. I like to play video games with the homies and eat a lot of food. Below are some more cool stats.
