Undergraduate researcher in combinatorics & discrete mathematics. Passionate about theoretical computer science, artificial intelligence, and the mathematical foundations of computing.
I am a second-year Bachelor of Computing student at the University of Guelph, majoring in Computer Science with a Minor in Mathematics. My academic record reflects a cumulative GPA of 95.4%, underpinned by a genuine commitment to rigorous theoretical inquiry.
My intellectual interests span combinatorics, discrete mathematics, and the theoretical foundations of computing. I am particularly fascinated by the relationship between abstract mathematics and computational problem-solving — a thread that runs through both my research and my independent projects.
Looking ahead, I aspire to pursue graduate studies and contribute to academia as a professor or researcher in computer science or mathematics, with a long-term focus on quantum computing or machine learning.

Supervised by Prof. Joseph Sawada · University of Guelph
My research investigates De Bruijn sequences — cyclic sequences over an alphabet in which every possible subsequence of a fixed length appears exactly once as a contiguous block. This problem sits at a rich intersection of combinatorics, graph theory, and algorithm design.
My primary contribution has been studying the efficiency of generation algorithms and implementing a concatenation tree framework applied to a novel set of De Bruijn successor rules (CCR), advancing the theoretical understanding of these structures. The work is implemented in Java and involves both algorithmic development and formal analysis.
