I'm a sophomore at UC Berkeley majoring in CS, minoring in DS, and pursuing the certificate in Entrepreneurship & Technology

I’m originally from the South Bay (Sunnyvale) and have been surrounded by tech - live around 5 minutes away from Apple headquarters. I’m super excited to delve deeper into innovation through technology and entrepreneurship. Some of my hobbies include photography, doing burn pen art (calligraphy with a 900 degree F tip on wood), hiking, traveling, and baking. I’ve done swimming for 14 years and also play recreational badminton & table tennis. I’ve done robotics since middle school and carried through into high school–go team FRC 3501 the Firebots—and learned a lot about the startup culture!
