About
Different notations,
Different notations,
the same curiosity.
Statistics and code on my transcript — but math, music, language, and chess are all the same thing to me: systems.
I’m a Statistics & Computer Science student in UC Berkeley’s College of Computing, Data Science, and Society — happiest wherever a messy question can be turned into a model, a proof, or a program.
The short version of everything else: 900+ volunteer hours with kids with special needs, twelve years of monthly piano programs at senior-living communities, a USCF Candidate Master title, two years as Math Club president, the linguistics club I founded, and years as a symphony and pit orchestra pianist.
Honors
Judged at the national level.
Not a trophy shelf — a track record: a perfect score and national-level finishes across math, business, and code.

Research
Putting a price on caregiving.
Full-time health-statistics research at USC’s Mann School — two summers and a school-year continuation.
Health Statistics Research Intern
with Prof. Boshen Jiao · USC Alfred E. Mann School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences
Jun 2024 – Feb 2026 · 1 yr 9 mos · Full-time
- Analyzed American Time Use Survey data to examine how elder caregiving reshapes caregivers’ time allocation
- Quantified time forgone and time compromised using R, survey-weighted analyses, and generalized linear models
- Co-authored a research abstract accepted for poster presentation at ISPOR 2026
Method

I’m CEO of Patchworks — a small team shipping tools we actually want to use.
Patchworks
CEO & co-founder
A small team building fitness tools we actually want to use ourselves — starting with the problem we kept hitting: knowing whether you’re training right, and whether you’ll actually show up tomorrow.

Form Analyzer
Our first build — it watches your lift and tells you what your form is actually doing, so you find out before an injury does.

Exercise Calendar
What we’re building now — record a full session and it cuts and crops the moments that mattered into a short video summary, so each day’s log is something you can actually watch back.
Work
Paid to teach what I love.
Taught Python to elementary and middle-school students — from first syntax to first working projects.

Coached competitive chess in private and group sessions; directed Grand Prix tournaments as a USCF-certified Club Tournament Director.

Beyond
The long game of showing up.
The compressed version of everything outside the classroom — a decade-plus of it.
