Hello! I'm Maxwell, a third-year undergraduate at MIT, where I study math and computer science. I'm interested in full-stack web development with an appreciation for good UI design. In my free time, I draw, though in the not-too-distant future I hope to also draw in my not-free time. In a past life, I was bent on entering academia as a researcher in pure mathematics. If anything on this page interests you, please feel free to reach out!
