Welcome to my corner of the internet! If you’re curious about who I am, read on.

I’ve been building systems for as long as I can remember. It started with Legos and train tracks, then Scratch in middle school, then a hand-written JavaScript Star Wars arcade game in high school.

At university I assisted Dr. Joshua Gross’s research on energy scalability (Draculog). His home server’s IP changed every single day, so I wrote a script that sent the team the new address every day and kept us able to SSH in and run our tests. I also interned at a friend’s clothing brand, where a short Python script read a Google Sheet of sponsors and influencers and emailed each one personally. Junior year, I led the website build for Renovation Bridge for about six months.

Beyond CS, I love being in nature (@5amethan on Instagram), golfing with my dad and friends, and playing games like Counter-Strike and Cities: Skylines. My favorite blog is The Singularity Is Nearer by George Hotz. And these are my pets (Copper, Orange Guy, Shiloh, RIP).

My startup is in stealth, coming 2027. until then, here’s some of my work.
