Designing a novel biomedical stent for an ophthalmic procedure known as DCR. The goal of this study is explore how biomedical devices and medical care can provided in rural communities where high quality medical care continues to be inaccessible to many.

Greater Los Angeles, California, United States

• Manage a team of seven UC Berkeley Master’s students in the prototyping of the Ocuelar SmartCap, which is designed to increase medication compliance in glaucoma patients
• Designed and implemented experiments to integrate thermal and machine vision camera sensors into the device to help track eye drop adherence and administration precision
• Experimented with piezoelectric materials as a means to seamlessly power the device and potential cloud-based data reporting tools
• Collaborate with senior staff to write grant proposals and secure grants with AFWERX to help fund Ocuelar research

Pinole, California, United States

• Worked alongside healthcare providers to provide vision and medical services to over 80 patients each day
• Gathered chief complaint, and conducted Visual Acuity, A-Scan Biometry, OCT-ON, OCT-Mac, Humphrey Visual Field and optic nerve imaging testing on patients

• Dissect bovine spines for intervertebral discs, prepare and extract samples of the annulus fibrosis, and run uniaxial tensile tests to examine the fracture strength of the annulus fibrosis
• Investigate how disc degeneration, disc dehydration, and higher collagen cross-linking due to diabetes affects the load bearing mechanical behavior
• Experiment different solutions such as polyethylene glycol and its effect in sample swelling, rehydration, and cross-linking, to best mimic control and diseased discs

• Prototyped and built a portable miniature electrocardiogram using Arduino Uno microcontrollers with the goal of developing a low-cost electrocardiogram that detects atrial fibrillation
• Developed an atrial fibrillation diagnosis algorithm in C++ that identifies the peaks of the QRS complex and subsequently analyzes the real-time data using Lorenz Plots
• Designed Bluetooth Low Energy Android application through Figma that receives EKG analysis from the Arduino Uno and displays atrial fibrillation diagnosis, allowing patients to better track their cardiovascular fitness

Wuhan, Hubei, China

• Wrote and currently publishing research review detailing the delivery methods of the anti-inflammatory drug Methylprednisolone for treatment of acute spinal cord injury, specifically elucidating the advantage of.
• Investigate the delivery methods of the anti-inflammatory drug, Methylprednisolone, for treatment of acute spinal cord injury, specifically elucidating the advantage of intrathecal therapy over intravenous therapy.
• Shadowed orthopedic surgery and assisted in organizing patient data files and operation details
• Studied healthcare accessibility differences between the US and China by interviewing Chinese Surgeons and Physicians

• Managed team of six to design a biodegradable esophageal stent for patients with esophageal cancer
• Prototyped over 15 novel stent models through SolidWorks, each stent designed with self-expanding auxetic structures to create a self-anchoring mechanism to prevent stent migration, and oversaw the 3D printing of.
• Utilized Finite Element Analysis to simulate esophageal peristalsis and analyze biodegradable polymer composites compatible with esophageal tissue for fracture under high stress
• Evaluate market feasibility by reviewing available patents on esophageal and biodegradable stents
• Confirmed and research design ideas by reviewing research articles

Berkeley, California, United States

• Genetically engineered E-coli to express petroleum degrading genes as a method to decontaminate waste water
• Synthesized plasmids using cloning methods, such as Gibson Assembly and tested gene expression in bacterial vectors
• Transformed and oversaw colonies of E-coli bacteria, monitoring the function of Cas9 in incorporating synthesized plasmid into desired places of the host genome
• Designed experiments to analyze the functionality of cloned bacteria as a bio-contained system that prevents the spread of synthetic genes to wild type bacteria already present in waterways

San Francisco Bay Area

• Managed spaces and events of the ASUC, providing information and customer service to the Student Union visitors
• Processed and organized over 300 reservations for student organizations using Event Management Systems
