Accessibility

My accessibility work primarily focuses on blind and visually impaired individuals. Currently, I am researching accessible methods to assist blind students in learning math at Sketch Recognition Lab. Additionally, I am developing Audemy, an educational platform specifically designed for blind students. I also am leading KatyYouthHacks, a hackathon promoting accessibility and technology.

Competitive Programming

Competitive programming is a huge challenge for me, and I've loved all of my experiences and the people I've met along the way! I am the president of my school's computer science club and I compete on our competitive programming team, where we code all around the state.
