Welcome

Over summer 2022, I went on a trip to Europe with my dad, and during that trip, my dad kept a record of what we did each day in a Google Doc. At some point, I started working on using the Google Docs API to automatically pull information to build a website. Slowly, more sources of data were integrated into the site (fitness data, photos, location checkins), and at the end, the site rebuilt automatically ~once per day, pulling in any new information from the various content sources.

In fall of 2021, I took the class 6.837, titled Computer Graphics, which involved learning about as well as implementing some of the techniques for rendering images. One topic that we covered is path tracing, which essentially consists of calulating the color of each pixel in a rendered output by bouncing rays randomly around the 3D scene, and aggregating the result.

During the spring semester of my senior year at MIT (2021), I took a class titled Iteractive Data Visualization (6.859 at the time, though that number is probably outdated). The class focused heavily on learning D3.js, and the final project was a rather open ended visualization that we could create in groups. [Read More]

Code Link The code for this project can be viewed on GitHub, and a more extensive writeup of some of the work can be found on this pdf. In spring of 2021, I took a class on database systems. This class covered various topics around designing different types of databases, and some of the advantages/disadvantages of each, but at the end of the course, one option for the final project was to do a performance based competition, where we try to optimize a program to run certain queries efficiently.
