About Me

I'm a student at UF who loves coding and thinks AI is cool. Numbers and math have been my thing for as long as I can remember, and I spend an unreasonable amount of time spiraling into thoughts about the future—sometimes about technology, sometimes about whether we're all living in a simulation. At some point, I accidentally became obsessed with blockchain and decentralization, and now I can't stop thinking about how to build a future where middlemen go extinct, systems are trustless, and people actually own their data.
