I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Ohio State University. My research focuses on the algorithmic foundations of decentralized systems and financial technologies. My advisor is Prof. Shaileshh Bojja Venkatakrishnan.

During 2024, I worked as a research intern at the Stellar Development Foundation, mentored by Dr. Giuliano Losa. As an undergraduate, I worked on mobile systems and social networks under the supervision of Prof. Dong Xuan. I received a B.S. in Business Administration in Accounting and a B.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the Ohio State University in 2020.

I am broadly interested in interdisciplinary studies involving finance and computer science. Additionally, I have completed all four sections (AUD, BEC, FAR, and REG) of the Uniform Certified Public Accountant (CPA) Exam.
