Undertook novel Game Theory research with Stanford Economics professor Jay Bhattacharya on formalizing the incentive misalignment problem in the scientific research community. Adapted stochastic multi-armed bandit theory to construct bounds on expected regret for scientists conditional on particular incentive structures (grants, scholarships, etc.)

Oak Brook, Illinois, United States

Created high-tech smart intercom system as part of the advanced engineering team in a 1B+ valued hardware technology firm owned by Blackstone. Prototyped novel “Hands-free” authentication algorithm using facial keypoint detection and bounding algorithms

Santa Clara, California, United States

Designed and implemented AI system for automating design engineering tasks with NLP (i.e. “CAD Copilot”) for a stealth-mode startup founded by an ex-Apple Engineer. Developed proprietary code LLMs using PyTorch and Langchain; performed with ∼80% accuracy on benchmarks

Claremont, California, United States

Worked on a zero-shot composer classification model which uses prior work with GPT-2 based transfer learning models to identify composers via sheet music, MIDI, and raw audio. Coauthor on forthcoming research paper.

Claremont, California, United States

Researched deep learning models to predict future pollutant concentrations using time-series meteorological data. Incorporated convolutional and graph-based approaches. Analyzed and cleaned data from AQS API.

Singapore

Provided funding and led a team of engineers to build industry-standard prototypes of "Smart Bin"–a recycling bin that uses computer vision to automatically sort waste. Project launched successfully under the name ROBin, and subsequently won the top Sustainable Business Award in Singapore. Led the design of the physical sorting mechanism as well as.

Singapore

Worked on IoT greenhouse system that automates humidification and cooling of greenhouses. Project launched successfully with multiple clients in Cambodia and South East Asia. Implemented and deployed front-end web app that the farm owner would use to control conditions within the greenhouse, and view analytics and alerts.
