About me

I am a Ph.D. student in the Arcana Lab at Northwestern University, advised by Prof. Simone Campanoni. I am primarily interested in new abstractions and representations in Compilers and Computer Architecture. Before Northwestern I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

Research

Developing Parallel Computation Architectures

Senior design project focusing on accelerating biologically-accurate neuron simulation using the Hodgkin-Huxley model. Designed and implemented an algorithm for partitioning the work for multi-neuron simulation across several machines. Designed an algorithm to run a simulation using the Hodgkin-Huxley model on the GPU using NVIDIA CUDA.
