About Me

I am a Control Systems Engineer at Thermo Systems where I work on EPMS (Electrical Power Monitoring Systems) for data centers. I got my B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan, where I participated in MHacks and CodeBattlers. My favorite computer science topics are distributed systems and computer architecture. I have also interned at Magna Steyr where I helped improve their backend processes.

Projects

Storyverse

An immersive reading companion for kids powered by GAI. Using RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) Storyverse constructs immersive and age appropriate stories for children learning to read, as well as quizzes to test thier comprehension.

Liquid Legends

An Enter The Gungeon inspired shoot 'em up developed in Unity. The bulk of this project consisted of tweaking controllers and physics scripts in C# for the shooting and movement mechanics. The soundtrack and pixel art graphics were created by me, which was a fun challenge.

Go-NN

A neural network built from scratch, written entirely in Go.

Interests

I love to run! Special shout out to the Cipriano Classic 5k and Big House 5k which are some of my favorite annual races.
I'm a huge fan of RTS (Real Time Strategy) games! My favorite is Beyond All Reason because of the massive team sizes. Working with other players to create a massive assault is extremely satisfying.
Recently I've been really into TTRPGs (Table Top Roleplaying Games). I'm a Dungeon Master for my group that meets every week. Coming up with new scenarios for my players helps me flex my creative muscles.
I've been trying to listen to more music. A great artist that I always come back to is Nujabes.
Golf! (Don't ask me about my handicap though)
Reading is another one of my pasttimes. Two of my favorite authors are Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss for their engaging fantasy worlds. Here are my current top 3 books:
