I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College (class of 2027) who is interested in longevity, brain aging, general biology, and computer science. I have co-founded a company, Biotein, to research age-related disease and therapies. I am working with the Tsai Lab at MIT, and previously at Alio, the Boyden Lab, Lygenesis, Rubedo Life Sciences and Hatch Coding. I have also collaborated with the Gladyshev Lab at Harvard Medical School and co-authored a paper focused on COVID-19 and its correlation with age. I love applying machine learning to gain insights into biology topics. My long-term goals are to leverage my work and connections in the business and academic worlds to contribute to finding ways to prevent brain aging-related diseases.
