Hi, I'm Brandon!

I'm a rising junior in Columbia University, studying computer science and entrepreneurship. I love building projects with people - most recently I made a chrome extension to provide hints for Leetcode problems.

If you're interested in talking about tech, please contact me via email. Thank you!
