I probably should have just majored in Art

I'm a current Senior at Stanford University graduating in June with a BS in Engineering. My major is an "Individually Designed Major in Engineering" (IDMEN Program) called "Computer Science and Architectural Design". All this is to say that I have many interests!

behold the majesty of Illinois (the S is silent!)

About me!

I was born and raised in the northwestern Suburbs of Chicago, where I attended Adlai E. Stevenson High School and graduated in December of 2019 a semester early. I worked in a labratory at the University of Chicago until COVID-19 shut the school down, after which I moved home. I've been all over since; Iowa City as a full time Americorp volunteer at the CommUnity Food Bank, I've driven three times cross-country solo, lived in Haight-Ashbury, worked at Target, tutored kids over Zoom, all before starting at Stanford.

Creative Practice

Outside of visual art, I also dance and write in my free time! Here are some of my dance covers with UNS! My writing is heavily influenced by the works of Ling Ma, James Baldwin, my lecturers at Stanford, and my queer/asian background.
