About Me

Statistics & Beyond

I'm a statistics student at Cornell University with a deep fascination for data analysis, machine learning, and mathematical modeling. My interests span from genetics to physics to social dynamics, always looking for patterns and insights in complex data.

When I'm not diving into datasets, you'll find me exploring the outdoors through backpacking, running, cycling, and tree climbing. I also enjoy strategic board games and nearly any outdoor adventure you can think of.
