With an interest in the intersection of technology and social issues, I am committed to exploring and addressing our society's complex challenges. My interests span from football and data analysis to machine learning and its applications in creating positive community impacts. I believe in challenging outdated paradigms and implementing new ideas through collaboration, aiming to innovate and drive meaningful change.

utilizing the expansive reach of digital media to promote awareness. I believe that visually captivating art serves as a powerful tool for communicating ideas and messages, capable of invoking lasting changes in perception. I derive immense satisfaction from the transformative potential of my art, striving to inspire and educate audiences while nurturing a deeper understanding and appreciation for significant social issues through the power of visuals.

It can facilitate collaboration, encourage the free exchange of ideas, and break down barriers. By promoting openness, we can create environments where diverse perspectives are valued and collective problem-solving is welcomed.

Ever since I was a child, I have been fascinated by TED and TEDx talks, attracted to their inspiring objectives and the impactful ideas they present. For years, I dreamt of getting involved with this organization, but I wasn't sure where to begin. When I started my undergraduate studies, I took the opportunity to apply for the design team at TEDxNHCE. Now, nearly a year into this journey, being part of this amazing team has been truly transformative for me. It has helped me grow as a person, allowing me to meet incredible new people who have expanded my horizons and deepened my understanding of the world.

I love writing space fiction. Being a huge fan of Star Trek, the idea of space travel and exploration intrigues me greatly. With my explorer's mindset, I often envision myself as the commander of a ship, discovering new life, civilizations, and cultures. Drawing parallels between current world affairs and the future interactions between planets, species, and cultures is something I enjoy.
