Hardware-algorithm co-designed CMOS imaging sensors for high-sensitivity biomarker detection — the kind of instruments that need to be right the first time, every time.
PhD candidate at Arizona State University with Dr. Erica Forzani at the Biodesign Institute, in collaboration with Mayo Clinic and Sequitur Health. Previously co-founded Symbionic, building EEG-driven bionic prostheses in Chennai. I care about the meeting point of careful engineering and human consequence — and yes, I've built four Game Boys and four NES systems from scratch.
Designed and showcased at ASU Open Door 2023 (Game Boys) and 2024 (NES). PCB design, firmware reverse-engineered, custom enclosures fabricated on the lab's drill press and SLA printers. Featured in ASU news coverage. The retro hardware is the through-line for everything I do — patient instruments and consumer hardware run on the same engineering discipline.
When I'm not at the bench, I'm on the dance floor — country swing, two-step, and learning everything in between. Outside the lab, outside the screen.
