About

Bay Area kid, Purdue student, builder, climber.

I grew up in the Bay Area and still use it as the reference point for most things.

The Bay Area

I grew up in the Bay Area. Scouts, the merit-badge and Eagle track, and weekends outside were the start of the outdoors streak. Yosemite was the gateway. The Eastern Sierra is the current obsession.

Purdue

I am a junior at Purdue studying Computer and Information Technology plus Economics, with an expected graduation in May 2028. I am also part of the Purdue Outing Club and Alpha Kappa Psi.

THE EASTERN SIERRA · THE CURRENT OBSESSION

What I build

Most of my projects start with messy data or an annoying manual loop. Burra watches for the work you keep repeating, Kalisi maps food finds, DeDuper reviews near-duplicate photos on device, and the trip map on this site keeps fifteen field notes tied to coordinates I can inspect.

I care about the decision behind the interface. A model is more useful when its assumptions are visible, and an automation is better when a person can still tell what it did.

I am plotting an Eastern Sierra trip up 395.
