From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm Gabriel Vacaliuc, and I originally hail from Bow, New Hampshire, but have been in Oak Ridge, Tennessee for several years. I am currently a Junior studying Computer Science and Statistics at Rice University in Houston, Texas.

Outside of course work, I enjoy playing Ultimate, TAing classes, and working on data science related projects. On wikipedia, I'm interested in statistics and robotics related articles, as well as the connection of unplanned pregnancies, contraceptives, abortion, poverty, and homelessness. After I graduate I'd like to work towards building a fully autonomous vehicle.

I was a student editor in the Fall '18 version of PJHC371 @ Rice and will be a student editor in the Spring '19 version of PJHC394. I'm excited to continue contributing to this awesome online resource!

In hopes of adding information, I've joined two WikiProjects:

PJHC371 Topic Page

For my wikiedu work, I'm planning adding information to the page on the Foyer (Housing Model).

I've identified these references I'm planning on using:

References I may use to edit the [Foyer_(housing_model) | Foyer] page.
