Hi, I'm
Alexander Escobar

Welcome! Feel free to learn more about me below!

A little bit about me.

I'm Alexander Escobar, a Computer Science student at NYU Tandon with a focus on healthcare engineering and data science. I am always seeking ways to make technology actually matter in people's lives.

Outside of engineering, I'm usually chasing something active, whether that's basketball, anything with an adrenaline kick, or showing up for my youth church community. It keeps me grounded and reminds me why building things for people matters.
