About me

I am currently an undergraduate researcher and a budding web developer at the High-Performance Computing Lab at the University of North Carolina - Charlotte, where my curiosity and passion for technology drive my work. Under the guidance of Dr. Dong Dai, my academic journey has been marked by a commitment to leveraging artificial intelligence for generating synthetic datasets and analyzing job traces in computing clusters. My interest in technology began to take a professional shape after my involvement in various projects during my bachelor's degree program in Computer Science at UNCC.

My work primarily revolves around the intersection of high-performance computing, data analysis, and web development. I specialize in creating innovative solutions that simulate real-world data for research purposes and developing interactive web applications to visualize complex datasets. This unique blend of interests has led to contributions in significant research initiatives, including a workshop paper submission for JSSPP'24 and co-authorship of a paper accepted by the prestigious IPDPS'24 conference.
