I'm a curious person by default. I want to know how things work, not just that they work. Building things is the fastest way to actually understand something, so that's usually where I end up, taking things apart and putting them back together myself.

I'm studying Data Science at USC because it lets me see the whole picture instead of one slice of it. Data tells the story and leads the problem solving, and that goes hand in hand with product for me.

Right now that means building something of my own in the fintech space, but it doesn't stop me from building other apps and side projects whenever something catches my attention. Outside of that I'm usually outdoors, playing sports, hunting down new food spots, or out shooting photography, mostly street and portrait. @wako.vision.
