Undergraduate Teaching Assistant
I am a Senior in Computer Engineering and recently graduated with my Computational & Applied Mathematics Degree from Saint Mary’s College. I am also a research assistant in two different labs, first in the Computational Mechanics of Morphology at Notre Dame (CoMMaND) Lab in the AME department to develop software dealing with segmenting the tissue classes of the brain, in Dr. Kogge’s Exotic Computing Lab working on an IARPA project dealing with DNA pattern matching and parallel computing. This is my second semester as a TA for this class, and you can feel free to slack me anytime with questions.
