Hello_Mini,

My name is Jake.
I really enjoy computer science and research.
I'm also interested in applied Math for Computer Science: proving algorithms/computation problems.

Currently, Im in my third year of undergraduate studies with the goal of pursing a PhD in Computer Science studying Concurrency/Parallelism.

My main goal is to become a researcher at a national lab or full-time professor.

My Interests

I enjoy Concurrency / Parallel Computing, Data-Structure and Algorithms, HPC, and Distributed Computing.

I really enjoy hearing about others research ventures, reading papers, and deep talks about topics in Computer Science.

I'm also attempting to work with more electrical projects, but I lack any interesting ideas to begin exploring.

I used to enjoy software engineering, but I've realized my true passion lives in research. So, I have taken a break from searching and exploring software engineering roles in industry

Projects

Collection of my projects in no particular order. A lot of projects weren't included here just for the sake of saving space and me forgetting a lot of them. If you ever wanna learn more about some check out my github for missing ones or to see the code.

Undergraduate Research ^{(Concurrency, Parallelism)}

Timeline: Nov 2024 - Present
Focusing on building Concurrent and Parallel Data Structures and Algorithms. Also working on HPC job scheduling with Sandia National Labs.

ProxyCraft ^(Networking)

Timeline: Jan 2025
Built in Go to bypass port-forwarding by using TCP tunneling. Allowing anyone to host minecraft servers on their machines
Next steps include fixing up demo and releasing to users...

COPR ^{(Backend Development / Fullstack)}

Timeline: May 2024 - Oct 2024 (development paused)
Built with Go and NextJS to help users efficiently practice data structures and Algorithms through in-depth statistics
Development currently paused, but I have plans to continue development soon...
Next steps resume development as a scaled back browser extension

ACM Website Backend Lead ^{(Backend Development, Nodejs, Rest)}

Timeline: Oct 2023 - May 2024
Led a team of 7 students. Together we used MongoDB and Nodejs to create the backend for our clubs website.
Fun project in my first year that taught me how to lead and teach programming to fellow students

KnightLight ^{(Backend and Infrastructure Development)}

Timeline: Sep 2023 - May 2024
Work in a team of 8 to build autonomous drone shows

Algorithms ^{(Java, C++)}

A* Pathfinding: Made for path finding AI in my games and for a maze solver
Falling Sand Sim: Made in Java and C++ for optimization practice, overall very cool project
Wave Function Collapse: Made in Java for the purpose of procedural map and image generation

Plus many many more...
