About Me
Hello! I'm a junior at the University of California, Irvine, pursuing a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics. My passion for mathematics drives my interest in applying its principles to the world of computer science, specifically machine learning. Beyond academics, I am quite in love with competitive games. During high school and continuing into university, I fell in love with strategy games such as Chess, Poker, and League of Legends. Playing with others is my favorite way of connecting, so feel free to reach out to play a game or two!
