I am the Co-Founder and CEO of Another Fish and an XPRIZE Feed the next Billion competition semi-finalist. I have a background in mechatronics engineering and biotechnology and am looking to continue applying these skills to tackle the problems that people and animals around the world are facing. I have four years of work experience in an eclectic range of tech companies ranging from small start-ups to massive international companies. My main strength is my statistics and software design experience, but I am also experienced in mechanical design and embedded devices.
- Led team to $15M X-PRIZE Feed the Next Billion Semi-finals winning $17'000 (USD)
- Designed a Microfluidic System that would autonomously create unique culture medias, grow
mammalian cells on microcarriers in culture media and evaluate media effectiveness
- Implemented optimization algorithms to determine what culture media to test
- Gained experience with mammalian cell culture
- Developed an automated calibration method for autonomous car sensor system
- Implemented fail safe target based calibration method
- Implemented efficient convolution neural network algorithm on proprietary hardware
- Developed tool which extracts architecture information from TensorFlow or Caffe machine learning definitions
- Implemented probabilistic mapping and localization algorithm for mobile robot
- Optimized aerosol jet printing parameters for production of a new nano-sensor
- Designed and built material characterization equipment
- Validated multi-million-dollar drug packaging system
- Designed and built mechanical testing rigs for neural surgical robot
- Wrote python scripts to assess robots performance

Moment is an automated conference calling system.
It has two cameras which can rotate a continuous 360 degrees independipendently.
Using a microphone array and computer vision AI it can detect 'iteresting' people
(ie. people talking or people doing something interesting).
The system then moves the nearest camera to that person
and streams from that camera.
I developed the mechanical design, wrote the AI/Computer vision, wrote mapping software and wired the system.
This autonomus underwater vehicle was built to navigate an underwater obstacle course. This involved designing a mechanical system, integrating sensors and a camera and waterproofing everything. Additionally, computer vision and path planning algorithms were used to navigate the course.
Project Presentation
For a course project,
we optimized the design of a carbiner to minimize the weight while maintaining the tensile stregth capabilities.
We used SolidWorks to create the carabiner, which was based on a Neutrino carabiner
and then used ANSYS AIM to determine the tensile strength.
We were awarderd $1000 for best overal project.
Created a formula that tells you how fast you could have run a race if you ran perfectly even splits.
