About
I'm a Computer Engineering student at Boston University with a concentration in Machine Learning. I take projects from data all the way to deployment, including training, evaluation, and integration.
My work spans assistive-robotics research, surgical robotics simulation, space-weather forecasting, and applied data science — from LLM/MCP workflows to embedded systems. I care about building systems that are easy to reproduce, measure, and improve over time.
Current Work
Tufts University — AABL Lab (CRA-WP DREU)
June 2026 – PresentUndergraduate Research Fellow · Medford, MA
CRA-WP DREU fellow with Prof. Elaine Short, researching socially assistive human-robot interaction and human-in-the-loop learning. Building a real-to-sim manipulation pipeline — a digital twin of a Kinova Gen3 Lite arm in the Genesis simulator, reaching ~0.7 cm place accuracy.
New Harbor Venture Partners
May 2026 – PresentApplied Data Science Intern
Migrating a ~20,000-contact investor CRM (Affinity) with a Python dedupe/import pipeline, and building an LLM workflow that connects Claude to the CRM over the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to auto-tag funds and surface ranked investor targets per deal.
