About Me

Passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex healthcare challenges

I'm a student at UC Berkeley pursuing a unique combination of Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, and Bioengineering. Growing up in Pembroke Pines, Florida, I developed passions for technology, basketball, sports, movies, and the NYT Crossword. The discipline and teamwork I learned on the court have shaped my approach to solving complex problems in healthcare and technology.

Currently, I'm working on groundbreaking projects at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, where I'm developing predictive and probabilistic models towards metastatic chronology, hoping to provide treatment to tumors ahead of its spread. My goal is to leverage machine learning and data engineering to make healthcare more accessible and effective for everyone. When I'm not coding or researching, you'll find me on the basketball court or collaborating with fellow students on innovative healthcare solutions.
