A brief overview of my journey

My journey began a few months ago when I took my first CS class at Stevens, and my passion for technology has only grown since then.

When I am not studying or working on problem sets (which has been rare lately 🥲), I am watching youtube videos and reading literature trying to make sense of neural networks, game theory, and reinforcement learning. Or, I am working on projects with my friends!

My classmate Zidanni Clerigo and I are about to launch the pilot episode of our podcast, Hello, Zidanni, Emilio, and World! which will uncover the essence of various topics in computing and design.

Away from my laptop, you can find me playing basketball in the gym, reading philosophy in the park, or djing in my dorm room. I love learning new things about technology and the world.
