Engineer. Hooper. Barber.
I am a student at Rutgers University from the Bay Area, studying Computer Engineering with a minor in Computer Science. I enjoy building practical projects that have real-world applications. Outside of school, I am passionate about basketball, having played at high levels in high school, and I currently participate in intramural games and formerly played on the Rutgers club team. Additionally, I am a self-taught barber, a skill I began in 2023, and I have built a loyal client base since then. Feel free to explore my projects below or visit my LinkedIn to see more of my experiences.
