About Me

I'm a student at Vanderbilt University pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science, B.S. in Economics, and an M.S. in Mathematics through the 4+1 program.

I build technology that bridges intelligence and physical execution — from autonomous drone systems with LLM brains to AI platforms serving thousands of users. I'm drawn to problems where software alone isn't enough; where you need hardware, perception, and real-world reliability working together.

Currently, I'm building DARREN, an autonomous embodied AI system, and leading Serenity AI, a mental wellness platform with $510K in aggregate funding. I also conduct research in neuroscience and strategy at Vanderbilt.
