Experience

Neuro Safety Systems Inc.

Present

Co-founder & Chief Research Officer

Co-founded a neurotechnology venture ($5M valuation, $100K pre-seed) building in-ear EEG for driver-fatigue detection. I direct research, the machine-learning pipeline, and partnerships spanning national freight carriers and the U.S. Army Aeromedical Research Laboratory.

Undergraduate Research Assistant (PURA Fellow)

PURA Fellow studying closed-loop neuromodulation for autonomic control after spinal cord injury, with an independent honors thesis comparing focused ultrasound to vagus nerve stimulation that became a first-author publication.

Arbutus Volunteer Fire Department

Present

Volunteer EMT

Certified EMT-Basic on a Baltimore County BLS/ALS unit, responding to 70+ calls in underserved neighborhoods and distributing naloxone through Baltimore's leave-behind program.
