BIO
Co-Founder and CTO, Channel3 (S25). Before Channel3, I worked as a software engineer at Palantir for a couple of years. There, I tackled hard security and data problems, and I built some cool stuff. I graduated from Duke with a B.S. in CS. During my senior year, I started my first company with Alex (Channel3 CEO). Fun fact: I'm also a published astronomer (twice!)
