I wrote tests and test generators for the functional verification of x86 processors. I also designed tools to automate testing processes.

Austin, Texas

I worked on testing automation for hardware verification and continuous integration for the POWER9 processors. Additionally, I worked on the CAPI reconfigurable computing project.

Austin, Texas

I taught computer architecture concepts at recitation sections; these concepts include: ISA, microcode, pipelining, out-of-order execution, branch prediction, caches, physical memory, virtual memory, interrupt/exceptions, buses. Additionally, I designed and graded exam and homework questions. I also answered student questions at office hours and online.

Austin, Texas

I led lab sessions for Embedded Systems Design Lab, as well as guided students through labs in our online Intro to Embedded Systems edX course. I helped students learn to design and debug both software and hardware components and taught them how to build real world electronics.

Austin, Texas

I developed a customer facing compilation feature in NI's LabView software, and enabled cross compilation of LabView binaries from the Windows platform to real-time embedded Linux targets. Additionally, as part of the real-time operating systems team, I also fixed issues with their embedded Linux firmware.I learned to efficiently implement new features and test modifications in large existing codebases as well as code review and Agile development techniques.

I worked on microbiological and mouse model research in the Diabetes and Endocrinology Research Center in the Baylor College of Medicine.
