About Me

My academic performance throughout my Computer Science and Mathematics studies at Vanderebilt earned me a spot on the Dean's List for all semesters. In ACM-ICPC 2019, my team won Vanderbilt's 1st place in the North America Qualifier and 1st place at the Tennessee site in the Mid-Central Regional. In my spare time, I designed a VR multiplayer escape game with my friends. With VR headsets on, players can immerse themselves into the role of an astronaut on Mars who is searching for the way back home to Earth. I also TAed for an elementary CS course for 2.5 years.

Programming Languages: C++/C, Java, Python, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, C#, Swift, SQL
Frameworks & Tools: Scikit-Learn, Keras, React, Node.js, Unity, Flask, Django, SwiftUI, AWS, Git

Experience

Machine Learning

In Summer 2019, I joined Prof. Bodenheimer's lab and coded in Python to develop a video pipeline that automatically recognizes clinical procedures and sends real-time information to hospitals during emergencies. The results were summerized in the paper "Emergency Clinical Procedure Detection with Deep Learning."

Self-Driving Cars

In Summer 2020, I interned at the Institute for Software Integrated Systems and coded in python to build the ALC Toolchain. Now, I am working with Prof. Dubey and a Ph.D. student to build a system to defend against adversarial attacks on autonomous driving environments.

Virtual Reality

In Spring 2020, I did independent research with Prof. Bodenheimer. I applied 3 dimensionality reduction methods (UMAP, t-SNE, and PCA) with k-means and discovered 2 clusters with a significant difference in MRT score, which indicates a connection between mental rotation ability and how people learned spatial layouts.
