about
i’m an undergraduate at virginia tech building and evaluating ai systems, from llm-generated interfaces to cubesat firmware.
now
- hice lab — undergraduate researcher. llm evaluations, and the accessibility and usability of llm-generated web interfaces.
- cpes — undergraduate researcher. power electronics for data-center power delivery.
- ut prosat-x — firmware and embedded work on the optical communications payload of a cubesat, with the hume center.
built
- toby — a self-balancing wheeled-leg robot with onboard vision and a mission-control dashboard. in progress.
- archipelago — a decentralized capability-sharing layer for autonomous edge systems, built at hacklanta and vt hacks.
- ml racing line — a reinforcement learning (ppo) model that learns to drive a racing line in simulation.
- echelon — an llm-powered campus opportunity navigator, built at vt hacks.
into
- evaluating llms — how well they build interfaces people can actually use.
- robots in simulation — balance, locomotion and driving, tuned in mujoco before they touch hardware.
- embedded systems — firmware close to the hardware, from esp32 boards to a cubesat payload.
- autonomy at the edge — systems that keep working when the link to home goes away.
