About Me
Hey! I'm currently a senior at Vanderbilt University studying Applied Math & Computer Science. From a very young age, I've always had an interest in the financial markets, after watching The Big Short with my dad, and understanding absolutely NONE of it the first time.
Simultaneously, I had a passion for prediction. It all started with my dad asking me to take guesses on behavior, and when time came to learn how to drive, instead of typical questions such as "what do the double yellow lines mean," he had a penchant for asking questions along the lines of "what's the car to our left going to do next?" Naturally, I found my way to the field of machine learning and data science when posed with such tasks, and utilized those skills in various different fields, with projects ranging from Parkinson's Disease diagnosis to forecasting sector returns using LSTM.
Outside of financial markets and data science, my hobbies include long-distance running, weightlifting, tennis, comic-books, stand-up comedy, and devouring Chili's Triple Dippers.
