Keyan Rahimi

Student, Engineer, and Creator

An Ivy league educated CS & Cognitive Neuroscience student from Mississippi, with experience in LLMs, applications of AI, neural networks, and deep learning. Multiple years of programming experience in a variety of languages and platforms. Lives by the ideas of optimism, collaboration, and creativity.

I currently attend Brown University as a Junior, and concentrate in Computer Science and Cognitive Neuroscience!
I attended High School at the Mississippi School for Mathematics & Science, and ended up choosing Brown over Vanderbilt, Johns Hopkins, and the Carnegie Mellon School of CS. I am deeply enjoying and learning at my time at Brown, and hope to grow further both as a person and in my education.

I am majoring in Computer Science and Cognitive Neuroscience due to the fact that I am deeply interested in the intersection between AI and natural intelligence. By learning more about the human mind and how it computes the world around it, I can hopefully better tie in my CS knowledge and apply it to exciting topics such as deep learning!
