Led day-to-day operations and set a long-term strategy for a clean energy company.Secured Seed funding and conducted financial analysis, due diligence, and market research.Negotiated patent licensing terms, accelerator terms, and catalyst deals.Optimized operational efficiency by establishing and managing vendor relationships.

As a Lead Investor and Design Supervisor at Stevens Institute of Technology, I had the privilege to oversee three transformative senior projects: SMARTSecure, MedFlex Tech, and ThermoLite. My role encompassed securing funding, providing strategic direction, and supervising the design and implementation phases for each project, fostering a collaborative and innovative environment among multidisciplinary teams of senior students.

MAE-3311 (Thermodynamic II ), MAE-3314 (Heat Transfer)MAE-3309 (Thermal Engineering), MAE-1312 (Engineering Statics)

Led the team through NSF I-Corps program and graduated from MIT X pro Drug and Device Development.Developed business model and obtained Intellectual Property licensing for a diagnostics industry startup.

The technology at the heart of this research stems from the NSF Career award (1254602) proposal, which sought to develop a novel microfluidic screening platform equipped with various functional components for diverse biochemical and analytical processes, utilizing electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) digital microfluidic (DMF) principles. The key components of this research include:The design and fabrication of PVC-based potentiometric microelectrochemical sensorsThe design and prototyping of an EWOD digital microfluidic platformLiquid/solid interface studies, including electric double layer (EDL) and surface enhancements using carbon nanotubes (CNTs)Equivalent electrical circuit modeling and LabVIEW measurementThe design and fabrication of a lab-on-a-chip device
