I build websites, draw circuit boards and photograph people.

I'm a cadet at West Point. Outside coursework I design and build websites, most recently for Young Man's Services, a local lawn care and engine repair business that now takes its estimates online.

I learned electronics on robots in high school, laying out controller boards in KiCad, and I started school clubs for 3D printing, engineering and computer science. I photograph people on the street, and I scored a 5 on AP Art in Drawing and 2-D Design.

Tokyo, July 2026.
  • Bike racing. Team lead on the Major Taylor developmental team. I once went down hard in a breakaway at the Tour of Somerville; the first thing I remember is the taste of salt.
  • Ride to Provide. A nonprofit I started to get bikes to people who need transport, built around a ride from New Jersey to Montreal.
  • Four languages. English and Turkish fluently, Arabic and Spanish well enough for a conversation.
  • Teaching. English and Arabic to refugee kids, robotics to younger students, 3D printing at weekly club workshops.
