I am sophomore math major at USC and an undergraduate artificial intelligence researcher at the Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science. I research high-dimensional data representation and unsupervised learning. I am fascinated by differential geometry and diffusion models. Previously, I studied at Exeter, where I recieved a classical diploma. For the past few summers, I have been a counselor and sailing instructor at Four Winds — the best place on earth.

Projects

• Vrjl — spatially and evironmentally aware AI
• coreMAP — improving UMAP drawing from Balanced Ranking and coreSPECT through metric diffusion and unsupervised learning
• FLOATOpt — contrasting differenent floating-point precisions’ (FP32, FP16, BF16) interactions with optimizers (AdamW, SGD with Nesterov momentum, RMSProp, and Lion)
