Some highlights of my career include:
- (2024-Ongoing) I accepted a position as Assistant Computer Scientist at Argonne National Laboratory
- (2024-Ongoing) I am the co-Lead for the Data team in AuroraGPT. Argonne’s effort to develop a LLM specialized for scientific use cases
- (2019-Ongoing) I developed LibPressio a library to abstract the differences between lossless and lossy compressors and their configurations.
- (2023) I was awarded an Laboratory Directed Research and Development grant along with Viktor Niktin on the topic of streaming lossy compression for tomographic data.
- (2022) I started a postdoctoral position at Argonne National Laboratory under Franck Cappello, Sheng Di, and Bogdan Nicolae
- (2019) I was selected for the US Department of Energy Office of Science Graduate Student Research Program award to study at Argonne National Laboratory under Dr. Franck Cappello.
- (2018) I taught a Fall section of Introduction to Operating Systems (CPSC 3220).
- (2017 - 2020) I was awarded the National Research Traineeship in Resilient Infrastructure and Environmental Systems fellowship.
In Undergrad, I was the Vice President of the Clemson Chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery. I was competed in our programming team as well as with CU Cyber – our cyber security team.
