Computer Science Student|Genomics Researcher

I'm a computer science student focused on genomics and bioinformatics. Currently I'm studying microbial symbiont communities at the Microbial Symbiosis Lab at TXST.

Research, projects & experience

Research Interests

My research interests sit at the intersection of genomics, bioinformatics, and computational modeling. I'm most interested in building pipelines that simulate biological systems.

Biological Systems & Process Simulation

Interested in modeling biological mechanisms in silico to understand complex systems. By constructing predictive models and synthetic datasets, this work enables the exploration of biological processes that are difficult to capture purely through wet-lab experimentation.

HPC & Pipeline Architecture

Focused on designing parallelized software workflows built for high-performance computing infrastructure. This involves implementing parallelism and system-level optimizations to process large-scale scientific datasets efficiently.

Projects

Software I've built across research, tooling, and web.

PMCSeach.nvim

Python-based NeoVim plugin for accessing PMC. Users can query the database for papers, genes, proteins, etc and save them without leaving NeoVim

TLDR

I'm a Computer Science undergraduate at Texast State University researching microbial symbiont communities, outside of that my research interestes include simulating biological systems and high-performance computing.
