Hello Everyone!

I am Rushil Shah, an undergraduate passionate in the intersection between physics, computer science, and machine learning. Currently, I am pursuing a double major in physics and computer science at MIT. A comprehensive list of experience can be found here.

After watching many documentaries on the mysteries of our universe, I began my journey into physics during high school. Around the same time, I was also introduced to coding and was facinated how a few lines of code could solve many difficult and time consuming problems. However, it was in college where I first gained exposure to the intersection of physics and computer science which made me realize the versatility of computer science. I thrive to continue this journey to unlock the full potential of computer science throughout my life.

Summer time is finally here! Few notes about the website: to-do list (first draft) has been added, physics simulations will come soon, and there have been some more dark mode bug fixes. I am hoping to add some of my handouts later as well as make the items in the to-do list movable and saveable after existing the site. After that, I will probably start adding the physics simulations. To anyone reading, have a great summer!

Just a quick update regarding some features: dark mode feature has been added and issues regarding aspect ratios should be fixed.

It is closing in on the end of my freshman year of college. It has been quite the experience to say the least. The mix between academics, social life, and personal life has been something I have never experience before, and I am excited to spend the next 3 years at MIT. I decided to make this website to start my adventure into computer science. I have always been interested in physics, but not so much in computer science. However, after reaching MIT, it's come to me the necessity of computer science in everything, especially physics. As I work on new projects, I will put them on this website to highlight all of the cool things that computer science and physics can do. By the end of the semester, I want to make the website look cleaner, add a dark mode feature, and add some of the projects I have already done.
