I grew up in the Bay Area around lakes and hangars, asking how things work and trying to solve them—chess, Rubik’s cubes, tools, airplanes. That curiosity stuck.

I studied data science at Chapman University, swam Division III, and I’m back in the Bay Area today. I work as an investment associate at FoundersX, partnering with top founders across the region.

I fly for perspective and fun. I build to learn and I try to move fast on things that matter.

skiing, flying, running, traveling (32 countries and counting), and reading. I go by the philosophy of, learn everything you can. You never know when you're going to need to use it.
