About

I'm a Computer Engineering student at the University of Washington and co-founder of HomeRobot Intelligence: a startup building an AI elder care platform to help older adults stay safe and independent, while giving families and caregivers the peace of mind they deserve.I'm passionate about robotics and AI, but more specifically what they can do for real people facing real challenges. Always open to connecting with anyone in elder care, healthtech, or who's personally navigated caring for an aging loved one.
