Paperflow

Paperflow is an LLM-assisted research presentation workspace that transforms academic papers into structured presentation timelines with aligned talking points and speaker notes. It combines automated content extraction with interactive editing tools so users can quickly generate presentations while maintaining control over structure, timing, and narrative flow.

Courses that shaped how I think

01
Human-AI Interaction Capstone

Pushed me to think about AI not as a product feature but as a design material — where trust, transparency, and agency matter as much as accuracy.

02
Interaction Programming

Taught me to prototype quickly and test assumptions early — a habit that now shapes every project from day one.

03
Data Structures & Algorithms

Grounded my intuition for when elegance and efficiency actually matter, and when clarity should win instead.

Music & Composition

Composition is a growing part of how I think and create. I approach music the way I approach software: iteratively, with close attention to structure and intuition about when to break the rules.

This section will grow to include original works, analytical writing, and projects that sit at the intersection of music and technology.
