Welcome!

think fast: You can find my best research/design case study I’ve co-authored here, and learn more about the project and outcomes here. You can also find my favorite CS personal project here. I’d love to talk about other work I’ve done if you’re interested :).


looking for swe, ux, and design roles.
I want to keep getting better at making creative and engaging work that is actually used by people.


Hi there, I’m Kai, a student at Rutgers studying CS and Cognitive Science. I’m graduating in 2024, and I’ll be joining UT Austin’s MSCS program for Spring 2025. I’ve worked at places like NASA, Merck, EA, and the National Park Service, and have had co-curricular experiences at places like NASA L’SPACE, Google, and NSF I-Corps. I’ve prototyped lunar rovers and I’ve documented design systems, and I want to keep getting better at building cool things alongside good people.

I have 3 SWE internships and 3 design & research internships, and I’d to continue to get better at both fields, they’re just too fun :).  I have personal interests in games (Top 500 in Overwatch, Diamond in Brawlhalla), music production and VST development, graphics, and a bunch of sports. If you’re deeply interested in literally anything, even things that I didn’t list, I’m down to listen & be a sponge.
