Where should a computational task run — onboard flight computer, orbital data
center, ground station, or terrestrial cloud — when latency, cost, energy, radiation,
security, and reliability all conflict? Reframed a single-utility model as
multi-objective trade-space search on the tier simplex; built the two-stage framework,
both mission evaluators, and all six benchmarked optimizers behind the journal paper
now under review.

For the coronagraph instrument’s target database: built the importable Python
query client with server-side star-alias resolution, ported PHP-only server scripts to
Python, and populated all-sky ecliptic coordinates with asymmetric two-piece-normal
Monte Carlo uncertainties. Two merged PRs on a NASA flagship’s planning
tooling.

Instrument-control software for a real exoplanet imager: ported the calibration
(CAL) subsystem’s control routines from legacy proprietary IDL to Python over a
shared RPC backend, with several merged PRs into the GPI 2.0 upgrade.

The analysis core of a VR posture-correction system driven by motion-diffusion and
VLM feedback: from raw motion-capture quaternions, derives joint angles, ranges of
motion, and clearances to grade the seven FMS physical-therapy exercises, scoring form
0–3 with a declarative rule interpreter whose guard operands reject
biomechanical compensations.
