About

I'm studying CS and Astrophysics at Columbia. I am currently working on building ML tools for improving wafer manufacturing processes on the optics team at AAC Technologies, which specializes in wafer level optics solutions. Previously I have worked on research in Astrophysics, using N-body simulations to understand the formation of stellar streams, and using time series analysis to study magnetic reconnection in coronal holes. I am interested in applying the combination of Physics and CS to produce innovative solutions to physical problems.

Projects

Virtual Jewelry Try-On

Computer Graphics

Earring try-on pipeline: detects ear landmarks in a portrait, identifies placement, and renders the jewelry onto the image.

Astrophysics Research I

Astrophysics

Used N-Body simulations to study the kinematics of the stellar stream GD-1, and to possibly constrain the location of its progenitor, as well as its history of interactions with dark matter subhalos.

Astrophysics Research II

Astrophysics

Using time series analysis of coronal hole images to identify features of magnetic reconnection on the Sun.
