I previously graduated from Harvard College with a joint concentration in Physics + Computer Science and a secondary in Statistics. Harvard is filled with irreverent polymaths, prodigious wimps, sociopathic careerists, elitist sovereigns, and first-order contrarians. It is anything but boring or neurotypical, and I loved it.

At university, I flirted with game-theoretic models of social behavior, quantum complexity solutions to the black hole firewall paradox, shortened proofs of the Gottesman–Knill theorem, interpretable machine learning algorithms, probabilistic programming, gambling arbitrages to justify directed information, options trading under power laws, and research on predictors of student activism. My senior thesis is on causal inference and was nominated by MP Brenner for the Hoopes Prize; it blends multiple-hypothesis testing, Bayesian inference, and supervised learning.
