I'm a 20-year-old computer science student at Harvard. I use engineering to solve problems. My goal is to connect my engineering skills with leadership to change the world. It's a really hard problem. I'm <1% of the way there, but am making steady progress.
I taught myself how to code when I was in the 8th grade (2015). After writing my first dozen lines of code, I was hooked. Here's a look back on 8 years of code: a journey of everything from building simple web apps to quantum computer simulations.
I decided to live in a makerspace and spend all my time building. I knew nothing but dedicated everything. Here's the result of 1,000 hours of building.
I helped runProd, a non-profit startup accelerator. In 2 years, we've taken over 50 college students and helped them become real founders with real companies. Here's the part I played.
In the fall of 2022, I spent 14 weeks trying to make almost everything. From creating an oven constructed of lives wires to making an entire circuit board from scratch, this 14 weeks culminated in The Cricket Vending Machine™—my largest project yet.
