in a nutshell
I am Radu Nicolae, 3rd year Honours Bachelor's Student at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. I am conducting scientific research with @Large Research, focusing on enhancing the scalability, reliability, and performance of computer systems. My research involves datacenter simulation, cloud computing, and developing ICT digital twins. Currently founding the Code for Humanity initiative as part of the Network Institute. I also coordinate computer systems and programming courses at the VU for 350 Bachelor's students. All of these while having a top 8% academic performance (and growing).
๐ฎ Fun fact: In my (too limited) free time, I give talks, engage prospective students, and share insights into the CS world as a Student Ambassador, at VU Amsterdam.
๐๏ธ I also love wheelies and knee-down corners on my moto ๐.
