Works

I have experience teaching a variety of Computer Science-related courses, and I'm proud to have been recognized for my hard work and dedication in this field. Specifically, I was awarded the prestigious Gold Medal Instructor title, which speaks to my ability to effectively engage with and educate my students on complex concepts related to Computer Science and Statistics. I am also in charge of some administration work, like interviewing potential instructors.c

Our main objective is to build an easy-to-use open-source toolbox for raw AIS data extraction, processing, visualization, and vessel modeling. We aim to make AIS data accessible and comprehensible for a broad spectrum of users, from government bodies and policymakers to university researchers, non-government organizations (NGOs), coastal communities, and the general public. AISviz was proposed to implement machine learning applications that work seamlessly with flexible data sources from terrestrial and satellite streams of AIS data. Besides, we intend to make the interaction with AIS data user-friendly, achieved through developing a Graphical User Interface (GUI). This approach will simplify data retrieval, integration, and basic manipulation processes. We also aim to enhance the applicability of AIS data by incorporating its integration with different maritime raster-based third-party data sources. The project and all its components will be made openly accessible, promoting collaboration, transparency, and public contribution. The project is under the auspices of MALNIS Lab and MERIDIAN, and funded by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) of the Government of Canada. GitHub | AISdb Documentation | AISViz Project Website

Ballast project is one where I am serving as a Research Assistant at Institute for Big Data Analytics, Dalhousie University. It involves building a web-based application that examines commercial shipping activities as an environmental stressor. The project involves analyzing and visualizing GIS (Geographic Information System) data. This project is supported by the Ocean and Freshwater Science Contribution Program, which is hosted by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO).

UNICEF Dalhousie serves as the official representative of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) at Dalhousie University, as part of the UNICEF Canada Campus Clubs program. As a recognized campus club, UNICEF Dalhousie works to promote and support the mission of UNICEF, which is to protect and advocate for the rights of children and to help them reach their full potential. Through various initiatives and events, UNICEF Dalhousie aims to raise awareness and funds for UNICEF's programs and initiatives, and to engage the Dalhousie community in efforts to improve the lives of children around the world.

I was actively involved in contributing to the design, development, and operation of Hafaquanzhidao(哈法全知道), which is an innovative information and life-sharing platform built as a WeChat mini app. This unique platform is catered towards the Chinese community residing in Halifax, offering them an exclusive digital space to share information and experiences related to their lives in the region. In addition, my team and I play a crucial role in one of the company's secondary revenue streams, which involves providing digital solutions to a diverse range of business clients.

One of the company's primary endeavors during that period was managing an online forum called ChineseHalifax(哈法华人网), which catered to the needs of Chinese residents living in Halifax. My ability to get up to speed with the job quickly was due to the fact that the platform used the same technical stack that I used and operated in 2013 for an anime forum.
