A bit about me:
- Previous Georgia Tech CS / Econ / MechE
- Developed an autonomous tennis ball-collecting robot, passed FINRA's Uniform Investment Adviser Law Exam, and, with my mom, turned a school bus into a fully functional tiny house
- Grew up in Vermont. I spent a lot of time public market investing, studying textbooks (Java by Liang and University Physics were my favorites), and programming side projects
- Led 2 robotics teams to US Regionals and mentored a third—the youngest team in Vermont—from last place to 2nd place in 1 year
- In 2024 was one of the top 50 students of 2.8 million for AP Exams (0.002%)
Currently in SF working to create Perifocus, unlocking private investing for everyone.
