Work Experience

Undergraduate Research Intern at Scientific Computation Research Center (SCOREC)
C++DjangoLaTeX
Integrated a GPU-bound memory pool in Omega_h, a C++ library for triangle mesh adaptivity which reduced runtime by 30% on high performance computing systems such as OLCF Frontier.
Authored a paper and poster in LaTeX. I presented my work at the Quantum Computing and Spring 2024 Undergraduate Research Symposium Poster Sessions at RPI
Built a Django application to allow researchers to upload their findings from the Plasma Science Virtual Laboratory to an external data storage website.
Fall 2022 - Summer 2024
Engineering and Quality Intern at HarcoSemco
Arduino C++React
Conducted extensive electrical testing of aerospace sensors. Subsequently, I identified potential bottlenecks and submitted written proposals for improvement. I also gained experience using a wide variety of electrical testing equipment.
Wrote Arduino code for detecting potential toxic gasses using Bosch sensors and sending data over Bluetooth. I also developed the corresponding React dashboard that leverages Web Bluetooth for displaying data in real time.
Automated dimensional inspections of manufactured parts, reducing time to inspect parts.

Project Experience

Open Algebra Software for Inferring Solutions (OASIS)
C++C

Currently leading the team for the OASIS project, an open-source C++ library for computer algebra and symbolic manipulation.

Fall 2023 - Summer 2024
Eye Robot
C#Arduino C++

Eye Robot is a robot that assists the visually impaired in navigation. I wrote C# software that leverages ARKit on iOS to construct a 3D model of the room using LiDAR and send commands to the onboard ESP32. I also wrote the corresponding Arduino code for the ESP32 that listens and responds to the commands.

Summer 2024
Roster
Next.JSMongoDB

Led the team through the creation of a web application for finding roommates, significant others, friends, and study peers.
