i am an undergraduate studying computer science at carnegie mellon university. i care about studying computer systems and building autonomous systems. outside of computer science, i fenced competitively for nine years, enjoy spending time with friends and family, and embark on projects that challenge me.
i am currently pursuing research in the robotics department and working as a web developer for scottylabs as part of the tech team for cmueats.com.
these are some of my projects and research pursuits so far.
exploration of the linear algebra concepts behind the pagerank and hits algorithm, their implementation in python, and further extensions involved personalized pagerank
research project integrating imitation learning and soft actor–critic methods for improved autonomous vehicle control and performance.
independently built a program using leap motion to capture 31,000+ asl letters, trained a sequential neural network and svm, and integrated the models with a java swing gui to construct and correct text in real time
independently developed a mobile app built with android studio (java/xml), tensorflow lite, and google firebase featuring user authentication, plant identification via image upload or capture, and community post sharing/browsing.
an app using dart and flutter with user authentication, location-based volunteer matching, and event organization to connect event hosts with local volunteers.
constructed a pen plotter machine that uses a raspberry pi, servo motors, integrated python modules, and simple household items to convert bitmap images into physical sketches.
a collection of old 3d platformer games in high school that i made for fun using unity and c# in my free time. likely buggy and unoptimized but i had fun making them and learned a lot about game development. check them out at my itch.io!
