Hi.

I think about the internet the way I think about everything else - as a network of nodes and edges. Routers, CDN servers, chess pieces, people, movie plots - they're all graphs. Understanding those connections is how you figure out where things flow, where they break, where the interesting problems are.

Right now I'm finishing my MS in Cybersecurity at Penn State (May 2026), building an ML-based intrusion detection system, and simulating QUIC routers to see if I can make queue scheduling smarter. Before this, I skated in high school, built some ML projects in undergrad, and randomly modeled my entire college in 3D because I wanted to understand Blender.

I read a lot, watch a lot of movies, and wonder about infrastructure most people don't think about - like how submarine cables route data across oceans, or how millions of video streams reach devices without everything collapsing.
