Hi! My name is Jackson, and I am an Honors Computer Science & Engineering (CSE) and Theoretical Mathematics undergraduate at THE Ohio State University! This is my portfolio website which contains more information about my professional goals and personal interests, my skills I leverage to achieve said goals, some of the projects I am currently working on and have worked on in the past, and coursework I have completed. The latest version of my resume is included as well if you would like to contact me with any questions regarding my work!
As stated above, I am currently working on getting my undergraduate degree (B.S.) in computer science and mathematics at THE Ohio State University, with a planned graduation date of May 2026. With this being said, I have learned a great deal from my time completing coursework and conducting research at Ohio State. I am incredibly interested and passionate about the analysis of algorithms with regards to machine learning and deep learning, and I would like to help find ways in which we can make artificial intelligence not only more time and resource efficient, but more robust and reliable as a tool people can work with.
I also have a deep interest in developing pedagogical methods to streamline education within mathematics, and I hope to start development on projects which will provide more targeted tools to students who may not have access to many resources for learning math in general. Some of my other hobbies I enjoy during my free time are weightlifting, trying new and delicious food, running, playing video games, and reading. Feel free to look at some of the projects I have been working on and contact me with the info included on my resume!
While working with the Nanoengineering and Biodesign Laboratory in analysis of DNA origami structures, I was tasked with optimizing a MATLAB program which would take a gel image as an input and output the relative concentrations of the DNA within the bands. Through the usage of MATLAB's image analysis toolboxes, I was able to form an iterative solution that provided quantitative results in terms of the origami concentrations.
During the summer of 2023, I worked with the Ohio State University's Department of Biomedical Informatics as an undergraduate intern! I was tasked with using Python to write a program which would accurately classify a comatose patient's prognosis through machine learning. My model was trained off of general patient metadata along with EEG and ECG data obtained from the patient.
Challenge DescriptionFor the second part of Ohio State's Honors Fundamentals of Engineering course sequence, I, along with three other team members, were tasked with building a robot which could navigate a predetermined course. On my end of the project, I was in charge of the programming of the robot. Utilizing C++, I was able to develop a script which allowed for the robot to adapt to different signals the course provided effectively. In the final competition at the end of the semester, our robot was a top 16 finisher out of 54 robots!
