About Me

Portrait

Hi, I'm Bryan. I'm a CS student at Georgia Tech concentrating in Intelligence and Systems/Architecture, expected to graduate in May 2026. Starting August 2026, I will return as an MSCS student specializing in Machine Learning.

I’m a helluva engineer with experience in Machine Learning, Full-stack development, and systems design. As an undergraduate TA, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching many students, allowing myself to grow as a mentor and collaborator.

I'm currently focused on improving my technical skills within the Machine Learning field by engaging in future research and working on independent projects.
