ESTON SCHWEICKART 400 Oak Ave. Ithaca, NY 14850 [email protected] www.cs.cornell.edu/~ers/ 9705562918 ACADEMIC/RESEARCH INTERESTS Computer graphics, specifically physically based animation, simulation, and sound synthesis. EDUCATION Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 2013Present Pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science with a minor in Applied Mathematics. Current GPA: 3.76 Relevant Coursework: ● Matrix Computations ● Computational Motion ● Analysis of Algorithms ● Advanced Programming Languages ● Partial Differential Equations ● Advanced Systems ● Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis: Solids Oberlin College, Oberlin, OH 20092013 Received a B.A. with High Honors in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics. GPA: 3.90 Relevant Coursework: ● Introduction to Computer Science ● Discrete Mathematics ● Data Structures ● Calculus II ● Computer Animation ● Computer Graphics ● Programming Abstractions ● Game Design ● Introduction to Algorithms ● Multivariable Calculus ● Systems Programming ● Honors Project: Contextual Visualization ● Database Systems ● Linear Algebra ● Information Theory ● Theory of Computer Science ● Artificial Intelligience King’s College, London, UK Spring Semester 2012 Attended as a study abroad experience through Oberlin College. GPA: 4.00 Relevant Coursework: ● Software Architecture and Design ● Statistics and Probability I ● Software Engineering of Internet Applications ● Geometry of Surfaces RESEARCH EXPERIENCES Animation and Deformation of Vector Graphics Jovan Popović and Danny Kaufman—Adobe, Seattle, WA ● Worked as a summer intern for Adobe’s Creative Technology Labs. ● (More details coming soon…) Integrating Quadtrees into the Servo Browser Engine Patrick Walton—Mozilla, Mountain View, CA ● Developed an implementation of scalable tiled graphics using layered quadtrees. ● Integrated this work into Servo, an experimental web browser engine. ● Programmed in Rust, a safe, concurrent language in development at Mozilla. ● Delivered an oral presentation to Mozilla staff summarizing my work. JuneSeptember 2015 JuneAugust 2013 Contextual Visualization August 2012May 2013 Bob Geitz—Oberlin College, Oberlin, OH ● Constructed a program that displayed water and electricity usage in Oberlin dormitories over time using interactive, textured graphs created using 3D modeling software (Maya and Unity3D). ● Conducted a user study to determine what effect, if any, using relevant texturing patterns had on the speed at which users could interpret and process the data, as compared to a color key. ● Completed as a component of the honors program at Oberlin College. ● Wrote a final report and delivered a final presentation to the computer science department. Dynamic Network Visualization JuneJuly 2012 Aidong Lu—University of North Carolina Charlotte, Charlotte, NC ● Created a portable tool for visualizing dynamic networks that elucidated both major and subtle patterns within the data. ● Completed as part of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates program, where I worked in the Visualization Department. ● Constructed using JavaScript and the D3 visualization library. ● Designed and presented a poster for an undergraduate research symposium at UNCC, and delivered a final presentation to the computer science department. Modeling Cancer Cell Growth and Mutation JuneAugust 2011 Kyle Furge—Van Andel Research Institute, Grand Rapids, MI ● Built a computational model of growing and mutating cancer cells. ● Showed a detectable difference between genetic and epigenetic drugdefense mechanisms used by cancer cells. ● Developed a method for determining which mechanism is causing drug resistance in vitro. ● Programmed using NetLogo. ● Delivered a final presentation summarizing my work to the faculty at VARI. TEACHING Teaching Assistant August 2013Present Steve Marschner, Doug James, Daisy Fan, and Kavita Bala—Cornell University, Ithaca, NY ● Conducted lectures, designed exam and assignment questions, held office hours, and graded student work. ● Performed these duties for Introduction to Computer Graphics, Physically Based Animation, and Introduction to Computing Using MATLAB classes. Grading Assistant February 2010May 2013 Benjamin Kuperman, Richard Salter, Cynthia Taylor—Oberlin College, Oberlin, OH ● Graded student work. ● Performed this duty for Data Structures, Programming Abstractions, and Operating Systems classes. NONRESEARCH EMPLOYMENT Summer Intern JuneAugust 2010 Richard Casey—Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO ● Worked for the Rocky Mountain Regional Center for Excellence on an NIHsponsored award. ● Created an online database that stored and displayed structural information on several potential drug compounds.
