When I am not too busy teaching or doing research, I occasionally do fun things! You might find me doing some of the following around CMU.

Juggling

Juggling

I learned how to juggle as an undergrad with the Monash Club of Juggling and Firetwiling (MCJAF). Nowadays, when the weather is nice, you might find me juggling outside with CMU's juggling club, the Masters of Flying Objects. This photo is from our act in the SCS Day 2019 talent show, with Mark Gillespie.

SCS Musical

Every year the School of Computer Science puts on a musical revue in the Fall semester, and a full length musical in the Spring semester. In Spring 2019, I played Freddy in the School's production of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

ICPC divisionals

Programming Contests

As an undergrad, I represented Monash University in the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) (56th place, 2017), and other competitions including IEEEXTreme (Equal 1st place, 2017). These days I focus primarily on coaching. I was formerly the coach of the Monash University Programming Team, and formerly a judge and problem setter for the South Pacific Programming Contests.
