About Me
I’m a Case Western Reserve student double-majoring in Biochemistry and Computer Science. Most days it’s code, labs, and my cat, Oatmeal, claiming the best seat.
Workout classes are my reset: spinning for the sprint, yoga for the focus, Pilates for the precision - and I teach Pilates, too. Off the mat, I’m a proud café au lait lover, always hunting for the smoothest cup.
I love to travel and hike - point me at a trail with a view and I’m there. Whether I’m shipping code, queuing a playlist for class, or mapping the next coffee stop, I try to keep things curious, practical, and fun.
