About Me

I’m a hardworking, driven, and innovative individual passionate about integrating today’s latest technology into healthcare to improve treatment and recovery outcomes. My work focuses on developing cutting-edge robotics solutions for medical applications, particularly in surgical systems and brain imaging.

Currently, I’m a researcher at the Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging, where I’ve designed a cost-effective, room-temperature brain imaging system that eliminates the need for cryogenic cooling of magnetometer sensors. By developing custom, hand-wound coils and conducting extensive Python simulations, I successfully reduced system costs by over $500,000 while improving field nullification accuracy.

At WPI’s Medical FUSION Lab, I’m working on developing MRI-compatible robots to assist with real-time imaging during surgery. One of my primary projects includes the creation of a Photoacoustic MRI-compatible imaging system aimed at enhancing surgical precision.

I am dedicated to bridging the gap between innovative robotics and medical solutions, helping to create the technologies that will shape the future of healthcare.

 FAQs

  • I love hanging out with my friends and enjoying new foods. Currently I am trying to immerse myself in Asian fusion offerings, recommendations are highly encouraged!
    I also like water sports and traveling to beautiful landscapes. My steady hands would make me a great photographer, if only I owned a camera …

  • I do! I have a Bearded Dragon named Bowser! He is quiet fella who like to watch TV. TV you ask. Well, that’s right! I made him a small TV out of a Rpi and an OLED screen that I loaded a few publicly available cartoons onto. He loves to sit under his heat lamp and fling his tail about when he sees the moving screen.

  • I have always wanted to help people in any way I can. My love for surgery started from watching Greys Anatomy (Cristina Yang is my favorite character), but at the same time I was a part of my middle school’s robotics team. Since middle school I continued building robots and seeking new opportunities, even having the opportunity to sit in on a neurosurgery. It was a tough decision between medical school and engineering school but I decided that I wanted to do both, and to do so I needed to become an engineer and specialize in healthcare robotics so that I can still make the impact I wanted.

    I am glad I stuck with my dream and goal, and I would not change a thing!

  • I cannot decide what platform is better, but music is so import in my life that I own both! Apple Music currently holds the songs I grew up on that shaped me into the person I am now, and Spotify has the new music I want to explore on the rest of my growing journey.

  • I jumped out of a plane! It was the best experience of my life! As cliche as it sounds, it really gave me a new perspective on life and having a really healthy work/life balance. I hope to never forget what it was like to just plummet down to earth from 10,000+ ft.

    What is life without thrill?
