I like optimization of low-latency systems, numerical methods, and predictive modeling.
Junior Undergraduate, CS & Math @ UNCG.
My primary focus is the intersection of hardware constraints and mathematical abstraction.
- Net-Latency-Lab (Honors Contract):
- C++23, AF_XDP.
- Benchmarking user-space networking against standard BSD sockets on ARM.
- Custom lock-free SPSC queues (std::atomic acquire/release) to decouple I/O from logging; CPU isolation/pinning.
- Algorithmic Optimization:
- President of UNCG Competitive Programming Club.
- ICPC Gold Medalist (Regionals).
- Focus on graph theory, dynamic programming, and numerical stability.
- Continual Learning (AI):
- Publication: "GEM-Style Constraints for PEFT with Dual Gradient Projection in LoRA" (Accepted IEEE ICDM 2025 / NSF REU) (Publishing in progress, link provided upon release).
- Implemented dual projected gradient descent on constrained Quadratic Programs, reducing projection time by ~10⁴x.
- Mathematics:
- I like Group Theory and Analysis.
- Currently developing a Rubik's Cube solver derived from first principles.
- 2025 Putnam Competition Participant (score pending).
I am interested in predictive modeling applied to complex systems, ranging from financial markets to civilizations.
- Cliodynamics: Statistical modeling of historical dynamics and governance stability.
- Macro-Prediction: Utilizing economic theory and geopolitical data to model state trajectory and market hedges.
- Aspirations: Quant Research, Systems Engineering, AGI/Robotics, or macro-scale economic simulation.
- Music: Former National Jazz Musician (NYO Jazz, Essentially Ellington Outstanding Soloist). Featured on Spotify
- Culinary: I love to cook. Turkish, Japanese, and Indian cuisine. Learning Spanish. Attempting Veganism.
- Philosophy: Economic theory and governance models, metaphysics (I am a firm atheist/determinist), anthropology/sociology/psychology, I want to understand humans and their relationship to the Universe.
