About

Hi! I write code, and it sometimes works. I'm trying to study, well, pretty much everything at Carnegie Mellon (class of 2028+), including biology, chemistry, physics, technical writing (maybe?), health humanities, Russian, and CS/cybersecurity. No clue what I'll major in.

I'm one of the room owners of The Nineteenth Byte, Code Golf's main chat room. I worked with some other awesome people to propose Programming Language Design and Implementation, which launched in 2023, where I'm a room owner of The Garbage Collector.
