Cal Hacks

President, Sponsorship & Logistics Team

Built a feasibility roadmap for Montana's first city-level data governance certification, balancing privacy compliance, technical complexity, and operational readiness across municipal systems.

Built high-fidelity CAD replicas of Olympic recurve bow limbs and ran 2,000+ FEA simulations to study how carbon fiber layups affect deformation and shot consistency.

Analyzed 500+ galaxy cluster observations to quantify mis-centering bias in redMaPPer X-ray–richness scaling relations. Primary author on the resulting MNRAS publication.
