<p>I developed an interactive Python debugger for Databricks Notebooks. This involved low-level work using libraries like debugpy and ipykernel, as well as web dev work to design the frontend and handle the state machine logic of a debugger.
</p>
<p> Improved over comparable offerings like Jupyter Notebooks, by emphasizing features like concurrent user support and session reliability during long-running jobs. I also made open source contributions to ipykernel.</p>
<p>Got familiar with working with sharded deployments, and tools like Kubernetes and Bazel. I also got the opportunity to make design docs for key architectural decisions, and learnt to scope out large projects.</p>

<p> I've been responsible for holding recitations, setting up autograders, writing course materials, holding office hours, and leading grading sessions. I've also
delivered some in-class lectures while substituting for the professor. I received the Alan Marx Memorial Prize for Excellence in Teaching ($500), given to 1 senior from the graduating CS class.

<p>
I've had the pleasure of TA-ing classes taught by some amazing professors! Here's a history:
<ul><li>CS 2802 (Honors Discrete Math): Fall '20</li>
<li>CS 4820 (Intro to Analysis of Algorithms): Spring '21, Summer '21, Fall '21, Fall '22
</li>
<li>
CS 4850 (Mathematical Foundations for the Information Age): Spring '22
</li>
<li>
CS 6850 (Theory of Information Networks): Spring '23, Fall '23
</li></ul></p>
