I enjoy building things in open source, getting curious about how things work, and occasionally finding a little sparkle along the way.
AI optimist, firmly in the p(bloom) > p(doom) camp.
(Also, I promise I'm not a Rust extremist, my projects just keep accidentally happening in Rust.)
- Algeon (algeon.dev) — A GPU-accelerated SQL engine built on Apache DataFusion where relational queries, graph algorithms, vector search, and ML compose inside a single query.
- Apache OpenDAL (PMC member, now inactive) — A unified data access layer that empowers users to seamlessly and efficiently retrieve data from diverse storage services.
- iceberg-mcp — An MCP server for exploring and querying Apache Iceberg lakehouse tables.
- kvik-rs — Rust bindings for NVIDIA KvikIO (GPUDirect Storage & high-throughput file/object I/O).
Query execution on GPUs, modern lakehouse internals, and rethinking what data infra could look like in the age of Agentic.
