I am a senior at the University of Pennsylvania pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Linguistics and Computer Science, with a minor in Ancient History. I’m passionate about exploring the intersection of artificial and natural languages and how computational methods can model and analyze human language. My interests span natural language processing, formal language theory, and the historical evolution of writing systems. This journey across dead, natural, and artificial languages reflects my broader fascination with how humans have structured, encoded, and transmitted meaning across millennia, and now, how they transmit meaning to machines.
