Work Experience

• Member of the Technical Staff, Lucata Corporation

  Jul, 2022 - Present

  Small startup developing custom architecture for sparse graph problems

  • Implemented a highly multithreaded version of the GraphBLAS library in C/C++, using C++11/14/17.

  • Optimized the multithreaded performance of Lucata's GraphBLAS implementation and worked closely with the hardware team to improve performance of the Lucata Pathfinder architecture.

  • Consolidated and improved the CMake build system for Lucata's custom LLVM 14 compiler.

  • Overhauled the CMake build system for the LucataGraphBLAS project and set up continuous integration, testing, code coverage, and static linting.

  • Collaborated with other teams regularly to address bugs and implement new features in the GraphBLAS library.

• Flatiron Research Fellow, Center for Computational Quantum Physics, Flatiron Institute

  Sep, 2020 - Jul, 20221 year 10 months

  Private research institute for high performance computing in basic science research.

  • Implemented OpenMP parallelized stochastic compression methods for quantum chemistry in the open source C++ package FRI-CC.

  • Contributed features, bug fixes, and documentation as one of the primary maintainers for the open source Python/C package PySCF.

  • Worked closely with the core team of PySCF developers improve the CMake build system and PyPI distribution after the release of PySCF v2.0.0.

  • Organized workshops to help members of the Flatiron community better utilize high performance computing resources as part of the Sciware working group.

• Graduate (Ph.D.) Research Assistant, University of Colorado Boulder

  Aug, 2014 - Sep, 20206 years 1 month

  Public research university.

  • Implemented a hybrid MPI-OpenMP parallelized version of the HCI algorithm in the Sharma Group's C++ software Dice

  • Built decision tree and graph neural network models to predict etching reaction outcomes and trained these models with experimentally observed data.

  • Wrote a new module for the PySCF package to interface with Dice enabling the investigation previously intractable systems.

  • Frequently contributed to the PySCF quantum chemistry package, implementing new features and handling bug reports.

  • Organized and led a workshop on software best practices for graduate students and post doctoral researchers with staff from the Molecular Sciences Software Institute (MOLSSI).
