I'm currently a graduate student in Applied Mathematics at Johns Hopkins University, where I've very fortunate to be advised by Dr. Nandi Leslie and Dr. Holden Lee. My undergraduate degree was in Applied Mathematics and Neuroscience from Syracuse University.

I have a variety of interests, generally categorized into statistics, cybersecurity/cryptography, and imaging science/signal processing.

Additionally, I enjoy CTF competitions (primarily crypto) where I play for the Musketears. I also worked on team 42-b3yond-6ug under Prof. Yinzhi Cao in DARPA's AIxCC competition, which was awarded $2 million in 2024.

Feel free to check out my blog or film/video portfolio if you're interested!
