About Me
Hi! I'm Ted, and I grew up in Austin, Texas where I attended the Liberal Arts and Science Academy. Currently, I'm a student at Carnegie Mellon University studying Information Systems with minors in Software Engineering and Artificial Intelligence. Outside of tech, I play tennis for CMU's varsity team.
I'm fascinated by the future of big data and its endless applications—from deriving healthcare insights to enabling smarter decision-making to optimizing tech, transportation, public policy initiatives, and more. I believe future innovation hinges on our ability to effectively manage data and derive meaningful insights to inform how we run our most fundamental institutions. I'm particularly interested in data infrastructure as the backbone for large-scale frontier AI systems.
