Glenview, Illinois, United States
I’m a senior at Northwestern studying Industrial Engineering and Economics, focused on sectors core to the national interest: defense, energy, and hard tech. I try to bridge a detailed, qualitative understanding of these industries with modern data science and econometric methods to come up with novel insights and solutions for a variety of business and policy use-cases.
