Undergraduate Researcher, Shastri Lab, Queen’s University

- Conduct independent research on simulating a novel photonic Ising machine architecture.

- Develop Python-based simulations to evaluate performance, scalability, and applicability of the architecture to various combinatorial optimization problems.

-Apply advanced deep reinforcement learning methods using PyTorch in ongoing research involving Ising machines.

- Present findings in lab meetings to contribute to group research efforts and guide future development.

Undergrad Research Assistant, Queen’s University

- Conduct research under Dr. Ivan Iorsh on the transverse field Ising model with periodic driving, focusing on non-equilibrium dynamics.

- Simulate system evolution in Python and analyze excitation probabilities and thermodynamic properties.

- Prepare figures and analyses for a manuscript in preparation for peer-reviewed publication.

Research Assistant, SNOLAB, Sudbury

- Designed and implemented a cooling system for the photomultiplier tube (PMT) testing setup as part of the nEXO collaboration at SNOLAB.

- Enhanced Python scripts for PMT data analysis to improve accuracy, automation, and efficiency.

- Documented my work by writing a report and giving a presentation at the end of my term.

Content Developer, Maplesoft, Waterloo

- Developed 30+ math and physics documents for Maple Learn and a blog to engage and attract new users.

- Worked to attract clients from France by developing content and secured 450 student licenses.

Student Athlete Academic Mentor, Queen’s University

- Ease first year student athletes transition to post-secondary education by providing academic tutoring, and advice based on my personal experience.

- Check in 1 on 1 with my group of first year student athletes weekly to ensure they are doing well academically and in general.
