Current Studies
Student at Belmont University pursuing a double major in Data Science and Business Systems & Analytics. Alongside coursework, gaining hands-on experience in backend development, automation, and machine learning applications through academic projects and professional contracts.
Active Research and Projects
Two projects in development: a generative-audio study exploring flow-matching and model-guidance in Stable Audio Open small, and a Unity ML-Agents environment for training an agent to dodge varied attacks through reinforcement learning. I additionaly do a variety of contract work in agentic and web automation on the side.
About Me
Driven by constant growth, an entrepreneurial spirit, and a passion for people, I am always looking for new challenges and opportunities. Growing up in a family of entrepreneurs and later working across startups, small companies, and a range of projects, I've carried this mindset with me and am always open to learning and a conversation over coffee.
I'm really passionate about getting the opportunity to work with peers and non-profits. I founded the Data Generation Initiative (DGI) to bring students across Nashville together, creating a space to learn, collaborate, and apply data skills to real community challenges. Through workshops, events, and hackathons, DGI is about connecting people and using data for impact.
Alongside that, I've spent the past two years contracting on projects ranging from web automation to AWS development. I also started Knit To Knit, a platform for knitters to design and share patterns. Built during my sophomore year of college as my first dynamic web platform, it remains early-stage and is currently on pause while I am focusing on my developments in machine learning, but I'm excited to return to it and continue exploring its potential.
Lastly, I tend to enjoy putting Easter eggs wherever I can and one of them is on this page...

Research Interests
I have a passion for deep learning and reinforcement learning. My goal is to work toward deep reinforcement learning, and I'm currently working on implementing this in a Unity project where I'm developing an agent that learns to dodge varied attacks. The project is in very rudimentary form, but I'm excited to keep working on it, especially over winter break when I'll have more time.
