Coding Experience

SmartPhysics

A living resource for incoming physics undergrads — notes, guides, and worked explanations on topics like Quantum Mechanics, how to write a polished lab report, and the math toolkit you actually need in year one. The goal: study smart, not hard.

Started because I wished something like this had existed when I arrived. Maintained on GitHub as a public resource for anyone making the jump from community college or high school into an upper-division physics program.

Composed

A productivity ecosystem — built to solve the problem of a physics student with too many commitments and too little structure. Tracks tasks, goals, habits, and time across academic and personal domains in a single interface.

PHYS 120 Lab Manuals

Course developer for PHYS 120 — Electronics Lab for Physicists (upper-division). Wrote and typeset lab manuals in LaTeX, including the Flip-Flops and Registers module. The challenge: making digital electronics feel intuitive to people whose instinct is to reach for a Hamiltonian.

TA — PHYS 120

Teaching assistant for the same electronics lab I helped develop. Running lab sections, supporting students through circuit debugging, oscilloscopes, and the peculiar despair of a breadboard that should work but doesn't.

Python Instructor — CARP Workshop

Instructor at the inaugural Computational Astrophysics Research Preparation (CARP) Workshop at the San Diego Supercomputer Center. Taught Python fundamentals — lists, for loops, functions — to six undergraduate participants, with a focus on easing the jump from community college to four-year research environments. Also attended sessions on astrophysics Python libraries including Astropy.

Curriculum Developer — Spark Astronomy

Developed curricula and course plans for online astronomy courses spanning all school grades. Co-wrote a structured framework for an introductory astronomy course — content, worksheets, and topic breakdowns — compiled into a book to be published under the firm's name.

Attended skill development sessions on working with large datasets and research methodology in a professional setting.

Founder — For Us Nonprofit

Founded an online platform to connect like-minded peers, recruiting a team of 8 high schoolers and a faculty advisor. Ran online career counselling sessions and subject preference surveys for junior students (CBSE board).

Led a waste management initiative for World Environment Day — installed community dustbins, interviewed environmental advocate Riddima Pandey, and engaged the District Magistrate to address illegal dumping near the Rajaji National Tiger Reserve.
