About

I am an undergraduate at James Madison University, currently studying to get my bachelor's degree in computer science, with minors in robotics and interdisciplinary studies. I regularly participate in the Haynes Scholars residential learning community, a group devoted to bringing STEM careers to minorities. In the high school I've graduated from, I tutored kids with the National Honor Society club during the 2020-2021 academic year.

Honors and awards

  • 1st Place - FBLA States Competition - Web Development

    I worked with a group of classmates to design, build, and present a website to a panel of judges in Reston, VA.

  • District Chairmans Award - FIRST FRC

    Given to the team I was in for the 2020 and 2021 season, Blue Cheese Robotics. The team that wins Chairmans must best embody the pillars of FIRST and displays a model for other teams to follow.
