I’m currently an M.S. student in Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Berkeley, with a background in Engineering Physics and Artificial Intelligence from the University of Toronto.
I’m broadly interested in understanding complex physical systems through computational modeling, observations, and AI, with a particular focus on atmospheric and Earth system science. Beyond my research, I’m also interested in how we communicate science – how complex scientific ideas can be made intuitive, accessible, and engaging.
My name is roughly pronounced as I-key.

Beyond Research
Nature photography has been a part of my life since my teenage years. I’m drawn to landscapes, wildlife, and fleeting moments in the natural world, and this gallery brings together some of the places and moments I’ve documented along the way. When I’m away from research, you’ll also find me biking, cooking, or occasionally picking up the guitar or piano.
