About Me

Your Name

I'm an aspiring biomedical engineer passionate about designing accessible healthcare solutions that serve marginalized and underrepresented communities.

I'm currently finishing my Master's in Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University, graduating in December 2025. I'm proud to have had the privilege to complete my Bachelor's at UNC Chapel Hill, and to have had the opportunity to work in the Biomedical industry at Fujifilm Healthcare in RTP.

With a strong focus on human-centered design and system optimization, I'm eager to join the product development space where innovation meets impact.
