About
I am a recent graduate of Purdue University with a B.S Computer Science and a focus on machine learning and robotics. After graduating I joined Persona AI working on the SWE & ML stack for our humanoid robot. Previously I have worked as a Data & AI intern @ BDO Digital, working on client machine learning initiatives. I joined BDO Digital in summer 2023 and worked full time for 2 summers and part time for 3 semesters. Outside of my work at BDO Digital I have led and participated in VEX AI, AIMM ICC, and co-founded a Solana-based crypto trading platform Celerity. VEX and AIMM ICC are both projects focused on creating physical autonomous agents, VEX was a land robot, AIMM ICC was a 12ft boat. I led the machine learning teams for both of these projects.
