I am currently a Principal at Stillmark, a Bitcoin focused VC fund where I invest in companies and do technical research (machine learning, protocol analysis, etc).I previously worked at (Google) X and Sandbox@Alphabet (spun out as Sandbox AQ) as an artificial intelligence (AI) researcher on a couple confidential moonshot projects in biotechnology and quantum computing. I also led AI/ML at Heal, a health-tech startup (acquired by Humana in 2022 after raising 200M+) I joined at the seed stage (employee <10) as a college student which was aimed at revolutionizing healthcare with doctor house calls, telemedicine, and remote patient monitoring (RPM). I received an Mphil in CS (distinction) from Cambridge where I conducted graduate research in the Artificial Intelligence Group. I received a bachelors degree in computational biology from UCLA where I studied as a Stamps Scholar (full academic merit scholarship) and graduated as departmental valedictorian. In college, I started Datareach, a startup (grant funded) dedicated to connecting medicine in developing nations with data science to drive improved patient outcomes. Worked with Cameroon Ministry of Health and WHO Office in Cameroon to research and implement smart surveillance platform using multivariate time series analysis and outbreak detection algorithms. I have also served as the Chief AI Officer of Arrow Dx, a biotech startup combatting liver disease diagnosis with nanotechnology and machine learning, and venture fellow at Stillmark.I have over a decade of research experience spanning machine learning (particularly geometric deep learning), computational biology, molecular biology, medical imaging, plasma physics/quantum computing, and Bitcoin/Lightning Network . My research has been published in top tier journals and conference venues including Scientific Reports, PLoS One, Anticancer Research, Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders, ICML-W, and NeurIPS-W.Google Scholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=XKYiYjoAAAAJ&hl=en
