Hi there! I'm Alex, a graduate student at Virginia Tech pursuing an M.Eng. in Computer Science & Applications after completing my undergraduate degrees in computer science and discrete mathematics a year early.
I'm interested in building software that sits at the intersection of theory and practice, particularly relating mathematics, systems, and software engineering. I've explored these interests through projects in computer algebra, automated software testing, machine learning, and parallel computing, as well as through research and my work as a software engineering intern at eClinicalWorks this past summer.
Outside of computer science, I enjoy skiing, exploring new places, and finding great food. Take a look below to learn more about me and some of my projects.
