(August 2019 - October 2020)- Mentored by Lerrel Pinto and Pieter Abbeel- worked on imitation learning, representation learning- Visual Imitation Made Easy, Playful Interactions for Representation Learning(August 2018 - May 2019)- Mentored by Pieter Abbeel and Ignasi Clavera- Worked on model-based reinforcement learning Cassie project- Train models and tune hyper-parameters. Created frontend visualization to analyze results.- Extended reinforcement learning capabilities to real-world complex 3D locomotion- Optimized Cassie robot’s stable running policy and built visualization setup to analyze results

- Worked with exec team to develop club goals and initiatives- Hold weekly office hours/mock interviews/resume critiques for the CS community- Restructured and organized big-little program for new candidates and members- Handled logistics with exec team for end of semester events (banquet, elections, etc)

- Led professional development committee of candidates with co-chairs- Hosted and organized club office hours and mock interviews- Held professional development workshops (interview workshop, resume workshop, negotations, etc.)- Compiled club-wide resume book to send to companies

Worked with a team to add features to the UPE website as part of initiation requirements

• Implemented and designed fully tested real-time document suggestion service for creative workflows. Built with Go and internal frameworks.• Designed and presented detailed technical design document to broader team. Set project timeline and milestones.• Prototyped finding nearest neighbors and profiled algorithms with pprof, worked with ML team to determine best use of similarity stack.• Improved similarity metric with new heuristic function and pair programmed frontend using Boq Web, Wiz, and JS/TS

- Graded problem sets- Held weekly office hours, homework parties, and guerilla sections- Created video walk-throughs for past final exam questions

Course Tutor: CS61A: Structure and Interpretation of Computer ProgramsCSM Mentor: CS61B: Data Structures

• CS61B: Data Structures, CS 61A: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs.• Helped students with concepts in Python for introductory CS course• Guided students through labs, homework, as well as projects• Assisted in office hours to clarify concepts and answer questions in how to approach problems in CS courses

- Designed and implemented the flow and automation of the decommissioning process of App Engine out of a geographic location. This increased reliability and predictability of the process and decreased time spent.- Co-authored a detailed technical design document and project managed implementation work. I identified a gap in requirements, then proposed and implemented a solution to make the process simplified.- Achieved 85% fully tested automation of the entire process while leveraging and contributing to horizontal automation frameworks built with Python, multiple internal configuration languages, and protocol buffers. - Attended tech and leadership workshops at the Google We Are GWE (Google Women in Engineering) Summit and played in Google Orchestra

- Participated in a selective training program at Goldman Sachs in full stack development- Developed stock visualization app with a team using technologies including React, RESTful services, Jackson, JavaScript- Learned about the technologies and financial services at the firm

Research and improve functionality of AutoWare software for autonomous car development

• Designed quantitative trading algorithms for domestic and international equities in Python• Implemented key components of robo-advising system, i.e. client-side tax-loss harvesting and dividend reinvestment services

• Contributed to building subscriber and publisher nodes using ROS• Helped implement driver for LED light for robot using Python / C++

• Learned basics of OCAML to write Lumines game • Built an elementary trading bot in Python that implemented arbitrage, pennying, and other strategies to maximize profit

-Substitute teacher-Graded math, science, and Chinese homework-Tutored and answered elementary school and middle school student questions

• Integrate art with STEM; led in exploring recent technological discoveries in robotics and technology• Present and organize activities and events, i.e. Berkeley Robot Learning Lab Trip

• Taught Python to middle school girls• Guided students through logical thinking and good coding practices• Organized and facilitated ice-breakers and discussions• Researched documentaries regarding Computer Science discoveries to present to students
