Brief Biographical Sketch:

I'm majoring in Computer Engineering and Political Science and hope to work in the public sector.

I'm really excited about the possibilities in data-driven public policy and design-driven government services.

I've done internships at the U.S. State Dept and United Nations for data-driven policy, and am currently a Google Daydream (Google's VR headset) Student Innovator on campus.
