Education

Bachelor of Science - Computer Science

University of California, Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
09.2024 - Current

Projects completed at UCLA:

SchedUCLA (React, Node.js, Firebase, Tailwind CSS)

  • Worked with a team to develop a full-stack event scheduling web application with interactive UCLA campus mapping, integrating Firebase for authentication and data storage.
  • Built responsive UI with React and TailwindCSS; implemented modular component structure, sidebar navigation, and event creation form.
  • Designed backend API in Node.js to handle event routing and server logic.

Line-Following Robot Development (Arduino)

  • Programmed a robot using Arduino IDE to navigate a complex race track with IR sensors and encoders. Completed the track in both forward and reverse directions continually.
  • Implemented PID control and sensor fusion for accurate navigation and sharp turn management.
  • Optimized control algorithms, enabling reliable and efficient track completion.

RISC-V 5-stage pipelined processor implementation (C++)

  • Developed a RISC-V RV32-I 5-stage pipelined processor in C++, implementing instruction decode, execute logic, and pipeline timing simulation. Further implemented GShare branch prediction, OoO execution, and Superscalar execution.

Projects

Non-coursework related:

- Proof-Of-Concept Fine-Tuned GPT-3 model (June - Aug 2023)

  • Implemented functionalities including generating text with fine-tuned models, listing fine-tuning jobs, creating fine-tuning jobs, uploading files, and listing available models. Utilized libraries such as Jsoup for HTTP requests and file handling. Demonstrated proficiency in Java programming, API integration, and problem-solving skills. Gained knowledge with handling JSON files.

- Basic Discord Account Scraper (Aug - Dec 2022)

  • JavaFX application which extracts user data from Discord servers using authentication tokens. Implemented a user-friendly interface to input tokens and displayed the user's friends list as output. Ensured secure data retrieval while providing a seamless user experience. Utilized the JSoup library for HTTP requests.
