About

Before I ever wrote a line of code, I was 13 and obsessed with trying to score the rarest sneakers. Every Saturday morning felt like a high-stakes race. I'd refresh pages, fill carts, and rush to check out before every pair sold out. But no matter how fast I clicked, I was always one step behind the bots that could grab ten pairs while I was left empty-handed.

That frustration turned into fascination. I wanted to understand what gave them their edge and how I could build something of my own. Naturally, that curiosity led me to study how to code.

Since then, I've graduated from New York University with a B.A. in Computer Science and am currently based in New York City. When I'm not coding, I enjoy studying fashion, playing basketball, and spending time with my bunny, Ollie.
