About

I study comparative literature at Cornell, where my thesis applies trauma theory to Toni Morrison's Beloved. I build computational tools for questions that don't fit cleanly into one discipline—cultural emergence detection, archival memory systems, contemplative technology. I'm looking for work at organizations where critical thinking and technical capacity aren't treated as separate skill sets.
