Now
What's up with me, right now.
A dated log of what I'm building, learning, and looking forward to - written by me, in my own words. Below it, my live GitHub activity, which keeps this page honest whether or not I remember to write.
July 4, 2026
working on
Project 990 - testing and verifying a multi-stage LLM pipeline on HPC that generates mission statements for 175,000+ nonprofits from IRS filings, and exploring GAT models for a grantor-grantee recommender system.
building
This site - rebuilding my portfolio as a piece of software that shows its own engineering: live pipeline, public API, changelog and all.
learning
System design - working through how real systems handle scale, failure, and tradeoffs beyond what a single script needs to.
practicing
Daily DSA problems - the commit feed below doesn't lie about whether I actually showed up. view ↗

This feed is my actual public GitHub activity across all repos - DSA practice, coursework, this site. It updates itself, so "consistency" here isn't a claim, it's a timestamp.
