Undefined behaviour,
defined results.

Third-year Computer Science student at York University with a strong background in physics. I work primarily in C++ and spend most of my time thinking about algorithms, memory, and systems-level problems. I'm drawn to the parts of computing where the underlying hardware still matters. Currently doing computational materials research in the Pisana Lab.

Options Pricing Library
In progress

Black-Scholes · Greeks · Binomial trees · Monte Carlo · IV solver

A quantitative finance library in C++ covering European option pricing and risk. Implements Black-Scholes closed forms, the full set of Greeks, Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial trees, Monte Carlo pricing, and a Newton-Raphson implied volatility solver, with all numerical methods written from scratch.

Portfolio Tracker
Live

5 strategies · Client-side backtesting · GitHub Pages

A client-side stock portfolio tracker with a strategy backtesting engine. Supports SMA Crossover, RSI, Bollinger Bands, MACD, and Buy & Hold with configurable parameters, equity curves, drawdown charts, and trade logs. Runs entirely in the browser with live Yahoo Finance data.

Neural Network from Scratch

97.91% MNIST · 842x matmul speedup

A neural network library written from scratch in C++20 with no ML frameworks. Backpropagation derived analytically, He initialization, SGD with momentum, and a templated Rule of 5 matrix class. Matrix multiplication runs through cblas_sgemm on Apple AMX, benchmarked at up to 842x over a naive triple loop, alongside a Metal GPU compute bridge.

Demoed live at Google Toronto HQ

A multi-agent CLI code review tool built on Google ADK and Gemini 2.5 Flash. Correctness, security, and performance agents run pyright, bandit, and ruff in parallel over tree-sitter preprocessed code, and a coordinator merges their findings into one prioritized report. Works on local files, directories, and public GitHub PRs.

Fishy, a BASIC to C Compiler

Lexer, parser, and emitter, all written by hand

A source-to-source compiler from a BASIC dialect to ANSI C. Hand-written lexer, recursive descent parser with a layered grammar for operator precedence, and an emitter that hoists declarations to satisfy ANSI C rules. Validates GOTO targets post-parse to catch forward references. No parser generator anywhere.

Gravity Simulator

Real-time N-body · Momentum-conserving merges

A real-time N-body gravity simulation in C++ with Raylib. Newtonian dynamics integrated per frame across all particle pairs, momentum-conserving merges on collision, and mouse-driven particle spawning with drag-controlled launch velocity.

Computational Screening of Materials for Anisotropic Lattice Thermal Transport

NSERC USRA + LURA · Pisana Lab, York University · May 2026 – Present

Building a DFT-based screening pipeline to identify candidate crystals with strongly anisotropic lattice thermal conductivity. Running first-principles calculations with Quantum ESPRESSO on the SciNet Trillium HPC cluster, and conducting a systematic literature review of low-symmetry materials to assess synthesis, stability, and suitability for phonon transport calculations.

Graphene as a Material for Tritium and Deuterium Separation in Water

NSERC USRA · Pisana Lab, York University · May 2025 – Aug. 2025

Investigated graphene oxide membranes as a medium for isotopic water separation. Fabricated GO filters, prepared samples for structural characterization, and operated a Raman spectroscope to estimate the degree of oxidation in GO membranes. Processed raw spectroscopy data in Python with SciPy for curve fitting and peak analysis, and presented findings at a summer research conference.
