Projects Overview

Here’s an overview of some of the projects I’ve worked on over the years.

Chronicle

I wrote a web app to help me track how I spend my time. It uses the Django framework for the back-end and Bootstrap for styling the front-end. It was my largest web development project to date, and I learned a ton from it.

AI Alignment Research

To learn about the process of doing empirical AI alignment research, I attempted to reproduce the paper "The Capacity for Moral Self-Correction in Large Language Models" by Ganguli et al. from 2023.

Undergraduate Capstone

As an undergrad, I worked with a team on two capstone engineering projects for outside clients. One was building a flight data recorder for SpaceX, and the other was studying the ferroelectric properties of nanoparticles.

Hackathons

Formlabs, my employer, holds an annual hackathon for its employees. I've participated in every one and had a blast each time. Here are a couple of my most successful projects.

Advent of Code

Advent of Code is a programming challenge held every year in December. I've participated in it several times, using it as an opportunity to teach myself new programming languages.
