Current Research
I'm a fourth-year Computer Science PhD Candidate at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, working on alignment algorithms and machine learning for improving the accuracy of genome sequencing technologies. In particular, my recent work has focused on germline small variant calling for nanopore sequencing.
Experience
I received my BS in CS and EE from Clarkson University in 2019 (3.99 GPA) and was awarded a Goldwater Scholarship ($7,500/yr) for my undergraduate research. I received my MS in CS from the University of Michigan in 2021 (4.00 GPA) and likewise earned an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship ($37,000/yr). I have also completed the following research internships:
- Microsoft Research Genomics: developing a cloud-based pipeline for FHIR and long-read data
- Assured Information Security: integrating a virtual Trusted Platform Module (TPM) into OpenXT
- Technical University of Darmstadt: developing an efficient semidefinite optimization solver
- Los Alamos National Laboratory: reconstructing X-ray images using computational ptychography
- Clarkson University TARS Lab: efficient parallel triaging of software bug reports
