I like machine learning, embedded systems, and quantum computing. I believe that quantum is the way forward and will bring incredible scientific advancement to humanity. Though im currently just a high school student, my goal is to major in physics, go into the quantum computing field, and be a part of this new and groundbreaking research.

I am originally from Kharkiv, Ukraine. I moved to Japan in 2013, lived there for 3 years, than came to the US in 2016. I lived in many different US. States such as Michigan and Pennsylvania, before finally settling down in Tennessee. I am a part of my school's FRC team and the NASA Student Launch team, in the latter of which I am the lead payload engineer.
