Hometown: Houston, TX

Anticipated Major: Computer Science, Cognitive Science

I love uncovering patterns and trends in seemingly chaotic numbers — analyzing NFL stats to predict games or vectorizing a massive database of Tweets to conduct a sentiment analysis. I am fascinated with how computational models can be used to decode the brain, humanity’s most complex system. At Cornell, I’m eager to dive into the intersection of Computer Science and Cognitive Science to explore how we can better understand and model thought processes, especially in the context of neurodivergent traits. The Milstein Program will give me the perfect platform to delve into psychology, neuroscience, and technology. I look forward to being part of the interdisciplinary Milstein cohort and sharing our interests! In my free time, I enjoy jamming on the drums, listening to a wide range of music, and playing basketball.
