I like being verbose and thorough, so I wanted to have a copy of a CV that is less strict and professional, and instead maximally inclusive. Ask me about any of these!

Written as a final project for LING 3462: Constructed Languages in Fall 2023, and published by the Linguistics department. It is a combination of creative writing and linguistic experimentation, with me speculating about how field linguistics would look in the far future when humanity has scattered onto different planets.
Presented at MIT Haystack Observatory (August 2022) and at the 241st Annual Meeting of the American Astronomical Society (January 2023).
Abstract: The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) currently produces static images of the emission surrounding supermassive black holes. A key goal over the next few years is to lengthen the observing window in order to produce videos of the supermassive black hole at the center of Messier 87, M87*. An important purpose of such a video would be to resolve the complex dynamics of material in the accretion flow and jet. In this project, we have developed a tool to extract and characterize motions. For the motion extractions, two methods were examined using videos generated from general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations: voxelmorph, a neural network used in medical imaging, and the Lucas-Kanade method in opencv, a classical technique to measure the dense optical flow. We find that the Lucas-Kanade method is more effective at detecting spiral motion than voxelmorph. We further characterized the extracted angles of rotation and velocity field with polar Fourier analysis. These results demonstrate that optical flow methods may be used to characterize the dynamics of the accretion flow and jet from EHT observation.
