About

I co-founded the largest student-run COVID research non-profit, Erevna.us, before raising over millions from Mark Cuban and a16z CSS and exiting a crypto exchange, DAOHQ. I graduated from Harvard, where I studied Econ and CS and took 60 courses! The normal course load is 32. Previously, I was lucky to be the youngest research assistant contributing to Opportunity Insights, the Census Bureau's Open Innovation Labs, and Steve Ballmer's USAFacts. I’ve organized dozens of hackathons, and I founded Harvard.co, the Harvard Hacker House. Every Harvard or MIT founder who has lived here has raised millions. I also was a campus ambassador for Mercor, Suno, Perplexity, and a member of OpenAI Forum. I've won numerous hackathons at Harvard and MIT, like CamelHacks, Peregrine, and MIT Energy Climate Hack.
