Work History
Graduate Fellow
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
02.2022 - 11.2022
- Analyzed tokamak scrape-off layer simulation data from Gkeyll electromagnetic gyrokinetic code for evidence and automatic detection of magnetic reconnection
- Left to pursue alternate career path.
Undergraduate Researcher
University Of California, Santa Barbara
06.2019 - 09.2021
- Wrangled GBs of Geant4 simulation data on computing clusters using LSF and Slurm.
- Contributed to rejection of all simulated background in Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) dark photon search by developing particle tracking algorithm and machine learning model (boosted decision tree) in electromagnetic calorimeter (ECal).
- Performed ECal acceptance studies to assure optimization of detector's utility in rejection of wide-angle bremsstrahlung background.
- Delivered regular presentations to stakeholders.
Undergraduate Research Fellow
California Institute of Technology
02.2020 - 08.2020
- Spearheaded LDMX's development of background rejection process for search of new class of dark matter (axion-like particles) by creating new machine learning model utilizing more subdetectors than existing model for dark photon search.
