ABOUT ME

Perception Algorithm Developer for Autonomous Vehicles - Mathematician and Problem Solver

Algorithm Developer specializing in Computer Vision algorithms for self-driving vehicle applications. Around a decade of experience coding in C++, very comfortable with modern C++ (17 and 20). Similar but slightly less experience with python.

A lifetime of experience with mathematical problem-solving and (unofficially) mentoring classmates and friends. Clear communicator. Well-practiced in the Socratic method of guiding others to find the solution for themselves rather than telling the solution outright. A knack for distilling the essence of complex ideas into simple explanations.

Degree in Computer Science from UCSD, with focus in Computer Vision and Mathematics.

Fun fact: pseudo-fluent in Chinese.

In Starcraft 2, users create custom games which place save files on the players' computers. I reverse engineered the encryption scheme and created an application to manipulate the save file at will to a handful of games, including various versions of Runling Run.
