About

When I was ten years old, my dad handed me the book Practical Poker Math to prepare for our family’s first annual Thanksgiving poker tournament. After taking home the $30 grand prize, my lifelong love for numbers and logic was born.

Alongside numbers, I’ve always had a passion for storytelling. After double majoring in Economics and Statistics, I started my career in marketing, where I sharpened my communication, analysis, and project management skills.

But something was missing: math. To satisfy this missing piece, I began reading everything I could about computer science. I dove deep into algorithms and took on personal projects, refining my programming skills and reigniting my passion for problem-solving.
