Welcome to my personal website! I currently work for the Pittsburgh Pirates as a junior data scientist while also pursuing my Masters of Information and Data Science at UC Berkeley. I earned my Bachelor's of Science in Data Science from the University of Rochester in December 2024.

In the past, I've worked in data and engineering roles with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Optum, and ShotQuality. My work focuses on applied machine learning and supporting data-driven decisions, with a particular emphasis in baseball.
