Swipe Market
April 2025 | co-founded with Caroline Smyth
swipemarketcu.com is an online marketplace for Columbia students to buy and sell meal swipes. Dining hall users often end up with lots of leftover swipes on their accounts, and many upperclassmen have no meal plan at all and are willing to buy individual swipes at discounted rates.

Can Arctic sea ice melting lead to more summer heat extremes?
My summer 2024 research project at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. I analyzed data from experiments ran on the CESM1 climate model to isolate the effects of melting Arctic sea ice on extreme summer temperatures, and to identify the mechanisms by which these effects take place. I worked in Lamont's Ocean & Climate Physics division under the mentorship of Professor Yutian Wu.
