About me

Hi! I'm Derrick, an electrical engineering and computer science student at Columbia University.

At my core, I’m driven by curiosity and a desire to create.

I view engineering as a way to transform ideas into solutions that don't only push the boundaries of technology, but also contribute to making the world a better place.

This site is an evolving record of the projects and ideas I’ve been diving into. Feel free to explore and see what’s taking shape.

I believe our tomorrow is engineered today.

Let’s build it, together.
