Undergraduate work has been clinically focused; graduate study broadens the scope.
-- **Computer systems and high-performance computing** — the Weenix kernel, a TCP/IP networking stack from scratch in Go, and micro-architectural performance work (SIMD, hardware counters via PAPI, RAPL energy, cross-ISA ports across AVX2 / ARM NEON-SVE / RISC-V V) on Brown's OSCAR HPC cluster.
-- **Reinforcement learning and applied AI** — a Magic: The Gathering RL project on OSCAR; production agentic-systems work at xAI on `grok-code-fast-1`; reasoning, evaluation, and red-teaming contracts with Anthropic, Mistral, and OpenAI.

-- **[SIMD / PQC Performance Study](/essays/where-does-simd-help-post-quantum-cryptography/)** — Hand-written AVX2 assembly for ML-KEM / Kyber. 35×–56× speedup over compiler-optimized C for core NTT arithmetic; 5.4×–7.1× end-to-end KEM speedup, with a full statistical-analysis pipeline on Brown's OSCAR cluster.
