About Me
I'm a driven high school student working at the intersection of aerospace, GenAI, and open education. My passion lies in bridging theoretical physics with practical engineering solutions, from designing thrust-vector control systems for rockets to creating gamified learning platforms that make complex concepts accessible.
Currently pursuing the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme with Higher Level courses in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics AA, I've gained hands-on experience across avionics, simulation, machine learning, and educational technology design through various internships and self-directed projects.
My career interests span aerospace engineering, artificial intelligence applications, and educational innovation. I believe in learning by building, teaching by sharing, and pushing boundaries to make technology more accessible and impactful for everyone.
