Aloha!
Get to know me!
Hi! My name is Chris. I am pursuing my Ph.D. in Computer Science at Clemson University with a research focus in Machine Learning and High Performance Computing. Machine Learning, in particular, has been a passion of mine since the early days of my undergraduate work. In the past, I have worked on a variety of projects using ML including computer vision, explainable machine learning models, AI for games, natural language processing, graph machine learning, and generative models for tasks such as art and music.

Here are a few of my projects.
A bot made for my personal Discord server, but made it open-source for everyone to try.
One of my first machine learning models was a CNN model for identifying street signs.
