Some things about me:

  • I'm currently studying CS + Education at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
  • I'm working on Illinotes, a note-sharing platform for UIUC students, and Mentions Trading Model, to live trade company earnings call mentions on Kalshi
  • I love building new things. I think the best tools are the ones that genuinely help people learn and think better.

Some things I'm interested in:

  • Education, especially how technology can change the way people learn and think.
  • Building cool new things that people actually want to use.
  • Understanding what it actually means to think well.
  • Prediction markets
