In 7th grade I built a video game for my school science fair. My hypothesis was that educational video games could help people learn better than standard study techniques such as flashcards. This project was huge for me. If I proved my hypothesis correct, I could potentially convince my mom to give me a little more screen time each day. Looking back, what I really gained was a love for building, designing experiments, and interacting with users. Since then, I founded a student organization in college, grew my own 5-figure business, and developed multiple digital products.

In my free time, I enjoy cheering on the Tar Heels and the Braves, working my way through my long Letterboxd watchlist, and getting outdoors to camp, fish, and explore.
