AI engineer · MSc biomedical engineering at Imperial

I build AI systems that survive real use.

My work usually sits in the gap between research and delivery. I like building things that have to make sense both technically and operationally.

Now

MSc at Imperial, with ongoing dissertation work on physics-informed operator learning for microbial dynamics.

Background

Applied AI engineering across research, benchmarking, client delivery, and production-heavy data systems.

Mode

Most comfortable when the work spans modelling, software, and the reality of whether a system is actually useful.

How I Work

The kinds of problems I naturally gravitate toward.

Computational Engineering

I like hard technical systems work, especially when it touches biology, research, or messy real-world deployment.

AI for Science

Most of my recent work sits somewhere between applied ML, scientific modelling, and tools that help experts move faster.

Systems Thinker

I usually end up connecting the research, engineering, and decision-making sides of a problem instead of treating them separately.

Projects

A few pieces of work that show the range of systems and domains I have worked in.

01

NeuroMatch Academy, July 2023

Prediction of Future Continuous Motion States from ECoG Recordings

Scikit-learn, Pandas, Matplotlib, Research

  • Built a data pipeline to analyze ECoG data for correlations between neural signals and cursor movement.
  • Achieved a max R-square of 49.3%, with processing latency reduced to 5 milliseconds using techniques like frequency filtering and PCA.
  • Identified correlations between Brodmann areas and neural signals, enabling faster processing by targeting specific brain regions.

Adversarial Tweet Sentiment Analysis

PyTorch, HuggingFace, Transformers

  • Performed sentiment analysis using SBERT from HuggingFace, reducing high-dimensional data to 3D space with PCA.
  • Trained a logistic regression model, validating data compression without loss in prediction accuracy.
  • Highlighted classification challenges with slang and Twitter-specific words, identifying model limitations.
03

UT Austin (Virtual), May 2023

Autonomous Ice Hockey Agent

Python, PyTorch

  • Developed an autonomous agent to play ice hockey using image-based and state-based approaches.
  • Achieved 85% accuracy in ball tracking and over 80% game success through policy optimization with the REINFORCE algorithm.
  • Built a data pipeline for training and assembling datasets to optimize the agent's goal-scoring strategy.
