About Me

I’m a Georgia Tech CS new grad. I enjoy designing and building full stack and mobile apps, and I am passionate about using the tools and knowledge I have to create and work on products that will improve the lives of others.

As I have a strong interest in tech entrepreneuship, I aspire to one day create and build my own startup in the consumer social or creator economy space and have a tangible impact on many people.

Even though I’m quite technical, I also love storytelling and all things visual. I'm definitely still a beginner designer and filmmaker, but I hope to use my skills to tell the stories of my life and others. Be sure to watch out for new videos on my YouTube channel! Thanks for checking out my page :)
