- Developed ​Greemigration, a web app that provides prediction and probability of the approval time for permanent resident (Green Card) applications;- Analyzed 45K rows of data from forums’ webpages and government statistics; performed survival analysis to properly account for the statistics of pending cases- Implemented the user interface using Bootstrap.

- Studied the fluid dynamics of forming planets and their environment; improved the accuracy of search by identifying alternative scenarios for spiral features in the young solar systems- Developed and implemented a numerical algorithm that allows fast convergence to the theoreticalpredictions from fluid dynamics with 10 times fewer grid points compared to.

- Implemented a distributed platform in python and Fortran for a multi-dimensional parameter study, resulted in excellent scalability that allows efficient search of interesting parameter space- Led a small team on developing a Poisson equation solver in part of a parallel computational fluid dynamics code; identified new science projects that can be.

I taught a lecture on "Basic programming, numerical methods, and visualization (using Python)". This was to equip students with basic programming skills for their two-month research program (in astrophysics) at the institute.

- Created a new algorithm in Fortran and OpenMP to solve coupled nonlinear differential equations that helps understand star formation in spiral galaxies- Developed a new theory of galactic structures and performed parallel simulations in MPI to verify the theoretical predictions

Parallelized a client's large Fortran application (Windows) using OpenMP. Resulted in nearly linear-scalability of the program on multi-core machines. Received a 5-star review from the client for the project.
