Selected work
Projects
A mix of side projects, experiments, and open-source contributions.
Chemical Property Predictor
Machine learning / cheminformaticsUses RDKit molecular descriptors and CatBoost models to estimate seven physical properties of organic molecules directly from SMILES structures.
Battery / Electrolyte Property Predictor
Machine learning / cheminformaticsAdapts the chemical property predictor pipeline to estimate ionization potential for potential battery-electrolyte candidate molecules.
Cantera Surrogate Optimization
Simulation / surrogate modelingReplaces a "slow" Cantera combustion simulation with a fast ML surrogate model to optimize operating parameters for peak CO blowout limits, then evaluates the surrogate's accuracy against full runs.
College Credit Transfer Equivalency Tool
Deployed web appA static web tool for Westwood High School students to map AP exam scores and ACC dual-credit courses to transfer credit policies across nine universities, including UT Austin, Texas A&M, and Purdue.
Bazaar Economy Pipeline (wiz)
Market data / systems architectureA real-time analytics pipeline for Hypixel SkyBlock's player-driven market. Features a Go engine that ingests price APIs, a Rust service for order-flow calculations, and a Flask dashboard for craft flips
Energy Markets Bridge
Data pipeline / energy marketsTests whether market-microstructure features (momentum, order imbalance, spread) built for game markets apply to ERCOT Texas power grid data.
Akarahnet
Open-source contributor / game engine
A custom Kotlin server engine built from scratch for custom game mechanics and server-side infrastructure. Contributing under dev-gw on NPC behavior, backend services, and internal tooling.
Relevant xkcd
NLP / semantic searchA context-aware search engine for xkcd comics. Combines web-scraped explanations, local query expansion, and hybrid vector/keyword search (FAISS + BM25) to find comics matching natural descriptions.
Open-Source Quizlet Alternative
Full-stack / open-sourceAn open-source study platform built as an alternative to commercial study tools like Quizlet. Still working on the site, it is yet to go live.
