About

I am currently a graduate student at UC San Diego with working experience in software engineering in addition to research and project experience with Machine Learning and AI. I graduated from UC Riverside with a bachelors in Computer Science and am pursing a master's in Electrical and Computer Engineering: Machine Learning and Data Science at UCSD.

I am mainly interested in how to use machine learning, specifically computer vision, in medical technologies and incorporating methods like reinforcement learning and complex pathfinding algorithms to enhance game AI and mechanics. Outside of machine learning, I am currently learning AWS and enhancing my skills and knowledge of cloud computing and databases.
