I'm a student at NYU Tandon studying Business and Technology Management, where I spend my time exploring the space where great software meets real business impact. I believe the most interesting problems live at that intersection — and I'm building the skills to solve them.

Outside the classroom, I've launched a barbering business from the ground up, grown it to 20+ monthly clients, and built all the digital infrastructure behind it — booking, payments, social media. I'm an active member of the Entrepreneurial Exchange Group at Stern and the Tandon Consulting Club, where I get to work on real startup problems with driven people.

My curiosity pulls me toward AI and computer vision, competitive squash (I've coached juniors all the way to national championships), and anything that blends creativity with craft. I like to build things that work in the real world — and I'm always looking for the next interesting problem.
