About

I am a diehard Baltimore Ravens fan (yes, it's been a rough couple years. yes, I still think they're going to win the Super Bowl). When I'm not arguing about how many times Lamar Jackson has been robbed of an MVP, I'm studying math, computer science, and statistics at Harvard, exploring sports analytics and machine learning research.
