Biography and Interests
I am a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison working on a PhD in High Energy Experimental Particle Physics with the CMS experiment.
Project
I currently work on the Elastic Analysis Facility (EAF) hosted at Fermilab. It is part of the R&D effort to develop high performing analysis tools that we can use for HL-LHC and generally for other future experiments. Specifically I work on developing the Dask setup and system that integrates with Fermilab’s HTCondor system. I hope to improve the way we use Dask so that we can sustain and support many users in an easy to implement way. Other tasks I work on are benchmarking for the EAF, acting as a liaison between the EAF and IRIS-HEP, and I generally aid and support as a member of the EAF applications team.
Recent Accomplishments
- Demonstration Video of the EAF - Combination of the work described, produced for the AGC Demonstration Day
- User Documentation for EAF (early version) - Early versions of the EAF user documentation, since the EAF is R&D it needs to be updated
- Successfully adapted AGC Notebook to EAF
- Aided in Stabilizing Dask Set-up
- Adapted Coffea Exercises to EAF
