01 / About
About
My name is Mathom, and I'm a Senior at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
I'm a co-founder and founding engineer at Praxora, a pre-seed funded OSCE practice platform for medical students. This Summer I completed a software engineering internship at U.S. Bank on the Microsoft Fabric Tools team, and this Fall I'm doing an embedded systems engineering co-op at Plexus.
Outside of engineering, I like exploring nature through hiking, swimming, and paddleboarding. I play soccer and tennis. And when I'm not doing that, I'm probably spending too much time watching Dave Ramsey and picking funds for my Roth IRA.
