new ✦ 1st place at Triton Tank · Cipher poster accepted to the WiML Workshop @ NeurIPS 2026
Grew up building: LEGO, Rubik's Cube, anything with moving parts.
Never really stopped building, tinkering, and asking why something works.
Sep 2023 – Jun 2025, UC San Diego
Medical Devices & Systems track, UC San Diego, Sep 2025 – Dec 2026 (expected graduation)
1 of 12 in UCSD's first cohort of its premier entrepreneurship fellowship, led by Shawn Xu (Partner, Lowercarbon Capital, Forbes 30 Under 30) and Prof. Elizabeth Lyons. Modeled after Stanford's Mayfield Fellows.
UCSD News coverage ↗30,000+ applicants; keynotes from Jensen Huang (NVIDIA), Sam Altman (OpenAI), Jeff Dean (Google DeepMind).
Traumatic brain injury recovery platform that builds a personalized 3D brain on a real cortex and forecasts 12 weeks of recovery with uncertainty bands. A weekly phone check-in tracks eye movement, speech, and memory on-device, and the forecast updates itself after every check-in. Built on real HCP connectivity data and the Allen Human Brain Atlas.
Scores 10 real Delhi street zones on live air, satellite, and street data, shortlists species that physically fit each site, then predicts cross-compatibility from published divergence times. Built at HackMIT 2026.
Always-on ER voice agent that turns EMS handoffs and physician orders into FHIR records in real time. A Claude reasoning agent decides when to speak up, like an allergy conflict, in one short sentence.
Ask an environmental health question and two AI scientists argue over real EPA, NOAA, CDC, and GWAS data, run the stats, and hand back a causal graph and research report. 1st place, DataHacks 2026.
A dragon-staffed AI clinic that takes you from symptoms to a Gemini-generated health report to a booked appointment, with a voice agent that calls the clinic for you. Best Use of Gemini, DiamondHacks.
Genomic risk backend that parses patient VCF files, harmonizes alleles against GWAS summary stats with strand flipping, and computes polygenic risk scores across disorders plus five cross-disorder factor scores.
Turns PDF study notes into actual songs. LLaMA 3.3 writes the lyrics, Demucs strips instrumentals from YouTube tracks, and edge-tts plus Pedalboard handle vocals and the final mix.
Adaptive learning platform that rebuilds any PDF around how you learn and what you love. GBrain remembers every checkpoint you missed and rebuilds your next lesson around those exact gaps.
Courtroom co-counsel worn as Meta Ray-Ban glasses. NVIDIA Nemotron ASR and a 120B LLM fact-check live testimony as it happens. Top 7 at the YC Voice Agents Hackathon 2026.
XGBoost momentum model predicting minute-level COST price direction during late afternoon trading, built on leakage-safe features. Hit 70.1% direction accuracy over a 5-day backtest.
LoRA fine-tune that teaches an LLM to pick the right tables and columns for text-to-SQL queries. More than doubled the leaderboard score, from 0.2967 to 0.6419.
Hybrid retrieval pipeline for RapidFire AI that pairs BM25 keyword search with FAISS dense vectors to catch what each misses alone. Lifted retrieval score from 0.59 to 0.70.
Jun 2026 - present. Inverse-simulation drug discovery engine: mines population biobanks for natural disease resistors, traces their protective mutations to the genes and pathways behind the resistance, and ranks which are druggable, computationally doing what leading competitors do through manual field expeditions. Rediscovered 23 known drug targets across hypercholesterolemia, type 2 diabetes, and ADHD using only public genomic data, then built a docking pipeline that screens purchasable plant natural products against the targets and filters hits by ADMET.
Mar 2025 – Jun 2026. Founded a construction tech startup using embedded computer vision to detect jobsite hazards, plus an AR documentation app that shows what's behind a wall before you drill. Selected for Blackstone LaunchPad at UCSD.
Visit ↗Mar 2026 – Sep 2026. Designed and evaluated challenging coding puzzles that test deep software engineering fundamentals; assessed problem quality, clarity, and solvability across languages and technical domains.
Hosting Cofounder Speed Dating at SF Tech Week, held at Stanford with Stanford Founders Club. Timed rounds that put founders looking for a cofounder in front of each other.
Open to conversations about genomics, AI, hardware, or the next thing worth building.
