Academia

• 2021-current Research Professor (LAT) at University of New Mexico Computer Science
• 2018 Spring University of Illinois Project TA for ECE408/CS483
• 2017 Fall University of Illinois Head TA for ECE408/CS483
• 2017-2018 University of Illinois Mavis Future Faculty Fellow.
• 2015 Fall University of Illinois TA for ECE408

I have been a teaching assistant for the following courses:

• ECE408/CS483: Heterogeneous Parallel Programming at the University of Illinois
• E155: Microprocesser-based Systems: Design & Applications at Harvey Mudd College
• E85: Digital Electronics and Computer Architecture at Harvey Mudd College

I have also been a teaching assistant for the Programming and Tuning Massively Parallel Systems (PUMPS) summer school in Barcelona since 2014.

I have also mentored undergraduates and a high school student, who is a co-author on two papers.

During the Mavis fellowship, I administered the ECE 408 GPU programming project in spring 2018. I created

• Four lectures on machine learning (1, 2, 3, 4)
• A course project where students add a GPU convolution operator to MXNet.
• Project kickoff slides (repo).

I also created a set of resources on using Nvidia's Nsight Compute and Nsight Systems performance profiling tools, including a 75 minute recorded lecture. See the Github repository to get started.
