Technical Experience
Optics and Photonics Research
- Researching feasibility and implementation of magnetic field sensing with optical fiber and interferometry.
- Researched quantum photon generation and used experimental setup to generate ~2400 time-correlated photons per second (correlated in time and space) by aligning a spontaneous parametric down-conversion crystal with two single-photon avalanche detectors.
- Oriented for quantum entanglement and likewise produced ~2400 photons per second using creative approaches for setup and alignment process.
- Aligned a Michelson interferometer to produce wave interference patterns on an oscilloscope, triggered by stimuli such as footsteps and table taps.
- Presented results to Swarthmore College Engineering Department.
Photoresistor Camera
- Constructed a basic pinhole style camera using a sealed cardboard box. Light measurements were captured using a Circuit Playground® Bluefruit microcontroller and written to a file with Python.
- The graphics.py Python library was used to generate images from the measurements file.
- Final project for ENGR 021: Computer Engineering Fundamentals, taught by Professor Emad Masroor and Lab Instructor William Johnson. Partnered with Charlie Schuetz.Poster
RNN Poetry Generator
- Built and trained a Recurrent Neural Network using Andrej Karpathy's char-rnn framework in Lua on Project Gutenberg poetry text corpuses, published an AI model online using Python and Django.GitHub
- Trained a word-based Markov Chain text generator for additional rhyme scheme options, integrating with multiple Python libraries such as markovify and pronouncing for accurate results, published as additional website using Django.GitHub
