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 solve complex problems while transforming ideas into practical solutions.

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.
