" My work is driven by my own experience using technology as a gateway to opportunity, and I strive to build those same pathways for others. From founding a non-profit that has helped students competitive academic awards to engineering production-level AI chatbots, my focus is on creating empowering tools. I am excited to join the Millennium Fellowship to collaborate with a global network and scale this impact, bringing me closer to my ultimate goal: building AI-powered educational technology that gives every student the audacity to dream.

Millennium Fellowship Project: Real Choices
We are Real Choices: a project aimed at helping people from Latin America make wiser choices (SDG 4 - Quality Education) by teaching them mathematical finance. We do this through a series of challenges, showcasing different concepts in finance, probability, and statistics to teach them how to make mathematically accurate decisions when investing their money or making uncertain choices. By teaching them these skills, we aim to help them overcome the short-term thinking bias that affects most young adults in Latin America, given the continent's history of hyperinflation at the end of the 20th century.
