About Me

My academic journey began with studying emergency medical services (EMS) at a community college in Texas and later shifted towards pre-medical studies at Drexel. This shift was inspired by my growing interest in technology's potential to improve healthcare, leading me to pursue computer science. My passion for leveraging technology in healthcare later intersected with finance during an internship, where I developed an interest in algorithmic portfolio investing. This diverse experience in healthcare, technology, and finance has shaped my approach to software development, aiming to tackle meaningful challenges and make a positive impact.
