Schenectady, New York, United States

- Original inventor and developer for Circulate, a real-time, GPU-based physicsengine for infectious particle and air quality simulations in hospital digital twins.- Architected a cloud pipeline that deploys virtual instances to compute results ofCirculate based on facility BIM models, patient census, and environmental sensors.- Demonstrated high correlation with biological sensing devices in the builtenvironment and actionable insights within an hour (96% reduction).- Translated healthcare executive and facility stakeholders needs into features andled engineers to deploy our MVP into production.- Primary Investigator for NSF Phase 1 SBIR and NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps)cohort (both regional and national).

Troy, Ny

- Led the research and simulator development within the Center for Modeling, Simulation, and Imaging in Medicine (CeMSIM) on multiple physics-based, cognitive, and physiologically based simulators.- Various medical procedures I’ve worked on are endotracheal intubation, surgical cricothyrotomy, and laparoscopy.- Worked on mixed reality systems including multiplayer interaction, haptic feedback robotics, AI-integration (reinforcement learning), and training metric implementation

Troy, Ny

- Designed and manufactured a 4-DOF robotic haptic feedback mechanism for endotracheal intubation and emergency cricothyrotomy.- Programmed and characterized controllers based on dynamic simulation andcontrolled studies using external force/torque and position sensors.- Validated performance through In-situ studies for intubation training withanesthesia residents at Harvard Medical School and demonstrated a significantimprovement (p=0.042) when compared to traditional training methods.

La Canada Flintridge, California, United States

I constructed 3D dynamic simulations of the Mars System Laboratory Wheeled Test-Rig and compared results to experimental data to ensure robustness. I also developed a discrete grass model using Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel Simulator (LAMMPS) to be used with small-scale robotic simulations.

La Canada Flintridge, California, United States

I worked as a part of the DARTS (Dynamic Algorithms for Real-Time Simulation) Lab within theRobotics and Simulation division. This involved constructing 3D dynamic simulations of a bipedal robot through adapting a previous four-legged robot simulation and developing force models for full-body contact and vehicle tire simulations.
