About
I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Information Technology (AI major) at the University of Melbourne, graduating in Dec 2025. My focus is on machine learning, NLP, and AI. Beyond university, I spend a lot of time building AI-powered side projects — from trading bots like MoriBot and PumpItPapi, to personal analytics platforms like ROYD. These projects let me experiment with cutting-edge AI while solving real-world problems.
