I’m Chief Research Scientist at Sigma Computing. Previously, I was a senior research scientist at Megagon Labs, a visiting researcher with the data systems group at MIT CSAIL, and a research staff member at IBM Research. Between 2012-2014, I was a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford and member of IDL at the University of Washington. I obtained my PhD from Brown University and also co-founded Fitnescity, a startup providing easy access and data analytics for wellness lab tests.
My current research focuses on solving problems at the intersection of Data Systems + Artificial Intelligence + Human-Computer Interaction at scale.
