Cool Stuff

I'm collecting some cool stuff I find in this FigJam doc.

Previous

Free Time SF: A free service for connecting volunteers with organizations with the goal of solving issues in San Francisco. Unfortunately I let it languish before really sharing it widely.

Magic Leap (2015 - 2019): I worked as a software engineer, implementing and optimizing computer vision algorithms. I worked on the production 3D reconstruction system, which allowed mixed reality applications to interact with the surfaces in the user's environment.

Stanford (2013 - 2015): I completed my Masters in CS with a focus in AI and Machine Learning. I also worked as a research assistant in a Computer Vision lab.

Purdue (2009 - 2013): I completed my BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2013.
