about

i'm a rising sophomore in high school interested in machine learning, especially how models represent their surroundings and predict what might happen next.

now
  • how models represent objects, space, and motion
  • how they learn the way an environment changes over time
  • how those representations can support prediction and decision-making
projects
fern.ai
a hospital bill auditing app built at hacktj, where it won best mobile hack. it accepts photos and pdfs, extracts medical codes and prices, checks them against cms data using rag, flags suspicious charges, and drafts a dispute letter.
pokepy
a small language model written from scratch in numpy to generate pokémon names. i implemented the forward and backward passes without ml frameworks to learn about weight initialization, activation stability, and gradient flow.
future

i want to keep learning by:

  • studying how models connect perception, memory, and action
  • understanding how learned representations generalize to new situations
  • reading existing work and testing ideas through small projects
