Hi, I'm Benjamin Namikas, an AI major at Purdue interested in AI, automation, scraping, and optimization.

My time in high school was filled with friends, competitions, coding, research, and fun. My current passion projects are Hexilo.org (a distraction blocker built for the modern era) and a notes scanning app I am developing for myself due to my love of mechanical pencils and physical notes.

I have also interned in multiple research groups, developing a technique to utilize Siamese Neural Networks in colloidal self-assembly with The Tang Group at LSU, and researching nuclear interactions on a quantum computer with Dr. Mercene and Dr. Launey at LSU.
