Incoming Computer Engineering student at Washington University in St. Louis. I build AI infrastructure, RAG pipelines, dataflow executors, agent reliability systems, and study what happens when they go wrong.
LawAI — Privacy-aware RAG legal assistant. Enforces document-level access via Auth0 FGA (HR sees salary docs, engineers denied). RAG pipeline with Pinecone + multilingual-e5-large embeddings. Includes AI evaluation framework using DeepSeek judge to score responses on safety, specificity, and actionability. Next.js 15 + DeepSeek V4 Pro.
Lesson Plan Generator — RAG system for 95K+ curriculum chunks. ChromaDB + Qwen LLM. End-to-end pipeline with OCR error correction and semantic search. Deployed in rural Guizhou schools.
StatsifyFinance — AI financial analysis. DeepSeek V3 streaming, LangChain orchestration, dual OCR (Tencent + Baidu) for document understanding.
BiphFlora — Plant encyclopedia with image recognition. Built a searchable database of plant species with identification features.
