I'm a passion-driven freshman pursuing my degree in Computer Science at HKUST. I've won the regionals and came runner up in FLL UAE by creating an AI model to detect Leading Edge Erosion using YOLOv8, and prototyped arm bands for concerts—tracking health vitals and location. Conrad Innovator Awardee, worked on software to encrypt data through a homomorphic lattice-based encryptor. Working on OurThing—an app to find and announce free goodie events university wide.
