• Design, implement, and verify hardware accelerators for sparse matrix operations using the Minispec HDL.• Develop performance models in C++ to compare hardware algorithms to assist in making design decisions.• Create test benches to verify and debug the functionality of various hardware accelerator functions.• Write Python scripts to significantly streamline and automate the verification process.

• Assist students in assignments working with Minispec to design and implement hardware including combinational circuits, caches, and a 4-stage RISC-V Processor.• Provide support in understanding digital systems, computer architecture, and operating systems.• Debug and provide suggestions for students working on the final design project to increase the efficiency of a pipelined RISC-V processor by improving the speed of ALU operations, adding new instructions, changing the specs of caches, adding pipeline stages, among many other optimiziations.

• Graded weekly assignments and hosted office hours for a lab-based electronics course for rising high-school seniors, guiding students through topics including digital logic and designing digital circuits for PSoCs.• Provided support for students in final projects, providing technical guidance for designs like capacitive touch pianosand binary data communication via lasers.• Conducted regular check-ins to assess and address student needs to foster a supportive learning environment.

• Provide course staff with feedback and suggestions on assignments.• Staff six office hours per week to assist students with assignments and answer technical questions aboutobject-oriented design, technical details about Python, etc.• Participate in 1-on-1 code reviews with students to provide feedback on coding style and algorithmic complexity.
