Accomplishments

Successful Content Delivery · December 2021

Within just the first quarter of starting my role at Intel, I was recognized by my former manager, Vittal Siddaiah, for containerizing and delivering Gromacs - an open-source application used for simulating protein structures. It was used to stress the core since it performs complex mathematical operations and is able to operate multi-threaded. For achieving this feat, I had to learn and implement new skills such as building binaries from source, containerization, test automation, customer engagement, and debug.

I made the director's list for scoring a perfect GPA on both academic years of my master's program at Texas State University.


3MT Competition Winner · February 2020

I won the Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition at Texas State University in 2020. The final was held on the 28th of February at Evans Auditorium. I presented my research in under three minutes, in front of a panel of non-specialist judges. It was a great experience for me as I learned how to communicate a technical concept to an uninitiated audience in a short period of time.
