About Me
I'm a Computer Science student at Emory University with an AI concentration and a Business minor, graduating May 2027. I like the problem-solving side of engineering and the part where something I built actually gets used.
I'm currently a Data Engineer Intern on Expedia Group's Global Payments team, working on data quality and pipeline testing for payment data products. Before that I spent ten months as a research assistant at Emory's School of Nursing, building Python and OpenCV pipelines that processed thermal and tissue-oximetry imaging into training-ready datasets for the lab's CNN models.
