I'm a high school senior at Leander High School. I'm a competitive distance runner and aspiring computer science major. I am looking to go to college in Fall 2027 and am looking for a program that will challenge me academically and athletically. I love running, programming, and working out. I've been invested in computers my whole life taking advantage of anything I get my hands on whether it's something out of the ordinary or something that seems to not work at all. I'm always down to try something new and I'm excited to see what the future holds. This Fall 2026, I will be entering my senior year looking to work harder and harder to be a leader on the cross country team and continue to improve my academics.

I run my own home server, and I've been learning how to maintain it, upgrade its hardware and software, and secure it against threats for an entrance into cybersecurity. I use Proxmox to virtualize different operating systems and services, creating a small-scale cloud environment right in my media room. As well as being able to access it outside of my network using Tailscale, TwinGate, and OpenVPN. I use new and old computers. Taking advantage of old AirPort Extremes. Being able to host a file server and just a whole lot of services locally, I find interesting.
Orchestrated high-concurrency dedicated Minecraft server clusters managed through Pterodactyl Panel. Implemented extensive JVM tuning for optimal performance and minimal player latency.
I’ve been running cross country since I was 12 years old. The tradition has been passed down from my dad to my brother to me. I’m very dedicated, averaging over 40 miles a week. I balance recovery to stay healthy and ready to compete and train. I’ve often led my varsity cross country team since I was a sophomore. I work to balance running and academics so I can become the best athletically and academically. I’m disciplined to wake up almost every morning at 6 am to run with my team. Over the years, I’ve developed endurance and resilience, which have helped me throughout all aspects of my life.
