About Me
Fourth-year Computer Science student at the University of Pennsylvania with interests in Human–Computer Interaction, Software Design, and Research infrastructure. I enjoy building tools that make research and learning more accessible and collaborative.
I’ve worked on projects at the CSSLab of the School of Engineering at UPenn, including the NOMAD platform and the Deliberation–Empirica experiments, and I’m currently developing PennPortfolio — an AI-powered student portfolio builder for students.

Outside The Screen
When I’m not working on design or code, I spend time reading, learning languages, and exploring how culture shapes communication and creativity.
- Currently reading: Maame by Jessica George, Une tempête by Aimé Césaire
- Learning: Swahili — a small step toward connecting more deeply with East African culture.
- Things I enjoy: working out, afro dance, quiet cafés, planning my next trip, and collecting design inspiration from everyday life.
