I am currently the CTO/cofounder of Fearn. Previously, I received my PhD in Computing and Mathematical Sciences from Caltech, where I had the pleasure of being advised by Professor Katie Bouman. Before that, I received a B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering with an additional major in Biomedical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University.
