Co-Founder @ Future Impact Initiative

Head of AI Research, Operations, and Program Curriculum

Future Impact Initiatives AI (FII) is an organization dedicated to equipping high school students with skills in AI, technology, and social impact. Our flagship Nexus AI program features an 8-week curriculum on AI fundamentals, followed by an 8-week research incubation phase where students develop AI-driven or socially impactful projects under the guidance of PhD mentors from top universities such as Stanford, MIT, Harvard, and CMU.

In addition, FII will offer full-stack web development courses, host large-scale hackathons with enticing rewards like cash prizes, Apple products, and other cutting-edge tech gadgets, and establish a research lab to incubate the most promising ideas. This lab will provide top researchers with access to advanced computing resources and dedicated mentorship, fostering innovation at the highest level.

Ansys Summer Practicum

Worked with Ansys’s Systems Tool Kit (STK) to model and simulate wildfires in the southwest region of the United States by developing Python scripts to control satellite movement in Low Earth orbit. Earned Ansys STK L1 certification through the process and managed to enable maximum monitoring duration of wildfires (100% efficiency).

Polaris Aerospace Group

Co-founded Polaris Aerospace to engage high schoolers in hands-on rocketry projects. Polaris aims to be the 1st high school organization to launch a rocket to space with our project "Separation Anxiety." I helped lead the VIPER Program, a family of five high-powered rockets with a thrust capable of reaching 5,000 feet. I built over 12 rockets in my friend's basement, utilizing composites and 3D printing. With recognition from NASA and local partners, I held rocket-building workshops for youth, demonstrating that age is no barrier to innovation.
