Short Bio

I am a high school senior currently attending Cold Spring Harbor Junior/Senior High School. My interests are in the practical application development side of computer science, which includes the creation of intuitive and appealing interfaces. Currently I am under the mentorship of Prof. Michael Schatz, Simons Center for Quantitative Biology in Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL). Beyond research, I develop iOS applications (mostly games), many of which are available on the App Store.


Research Interests

I am interested in making software that is easy-to-use for the common person even if it will not typically be used by the common person. Currently, I am working on an iOS application for short-read alignment and analysis that is optimized for and takes advantage of all the features contained in a touch-screen, mobile device like an iPhone or iPad.
