Curiosity.
CuriosityFrom a young age I was tough to handle — always exploring, always restless.
Even making my way into certain parts of the house where I shouldn't have been.
“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence.”
Adventure.
AdventureWith every new opportunity, I dove right in.
Pushing the limits, finding new ones, and pushing those.
“If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try.”
Impact.
ImpactMaking a positive impact everywhere I go.
Going so far as to rhyme a three-minute valedictorian speech — so it wasn't just another ceremony, but a memorable experience.
“A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.”
Career
I've brought those values everywhere I've gone.
Georgia Tech
BS Mechanical Engineering · Minor in CS
I chose Georgia Tech to continue pushing myself — to understand how the technology our world runs on actually works and how to build it myself. Majoring in mechanical engineering with a minor in computer science, determined to leave no stone unturned.
Kenzie Lane
Software Engineering Intern
A group of thinkers, technologists, and creatives dedicated to building technology companies from the ground up. I worked on AI-powered photo organization for analog photos with no metadata — learning to code on a small agile team and discovering firsthand what it takes to find success in startups.
Tesla
Manufacturing Equipment Engineering Intern
Drove cross-country to San Francisco, leaving everything I’d ever known behind. Pushed past people telling me things were out of scope and delivered a headcount reduction saving over $500K per year. Designed equipment for the Model 3 and Model Y lines, learning manufacturing at scale.
PocketPod
Software Engineering Intern
A YC-backed startup building AI-generated podcasts. Experimented with cutting-edge models at the frontier of AI. Operated as a full-stack engineer owning code from frontend to backend to database — cementing my drive to build my own startup, chasing impactful problems to solve.
Each stop sharpened the instinct to build.
And those same values push me outside of work — taking on personal projects, building at the forefront of hardware and software, learning whatever it takes to solve the problem in front of me.
Openclaw · Benchmarks
Clawtan
AI agents are becoming their own entities — capable of buying, selling, and interacting with the world — but there was no real way to benchmark them against each other or a human. So I built the environment to do it. Clawtan, a play on Catan, highlights a player's ability to plan, optimize resources, and bargain with other players, ultimately navigating a tough environment.

Capstone · Hardware
Invision
Architects, structural engineers, contractors, and inspectors are all limited by residential building documentation that rarely exists — forced to make assumptions that prove wrong, adding to costs and timelines. So I built Invision, a 3D wall scanner that fuses a microwave antenna array with time-of-flight sensors to map studs, pipes, and wiring through drywall. Won the Inventure Prize Golden Ticket at Georgia Tech.

AI · Photo Editor
Luminate
LLMs can't edit photos properly — they hallucinate details and make images look like stock. So I built a harness for them to edit photos in an agentic manner, iterating on their work using the same tools a person would. Luminate is an open-source React component that others can incorporate into their project to keep a human in the loop while letting AI take the reins.
ExploreAnd that brings me to what I'm working on now.
Spinna.
SpinnaThe secondary watch market is a $25B industry running on spreadsheets, manual listings, and WhatsApp groups. I'm building an AI operating system that replaces all of it — dealers upload photos, AI identifies the watch, pulls market data, and cross-lists automatically. The end goal is a system that manages a dealer's entire inventory autonomously.
