Brief Biographical Sketch:
A group of Stanford researchers and I are building Nooks – a virtual sales floor. 🏠 We help remote teams recreate the buzz of being in an office together. Here's more to the story 🌻 1️⃣ I'm working on how deep learning systems can reason with molecules. I've also served on the scientific program committee for MLCB, and used to work at the Stanford WHIL Lab on computer vision. 2️⃣ My team at Carnegie Mellon and I were finalists in the $15M Global Learning XPRIZE competition. We built an Android app that teaches kids the 3 R's: reading, writing & arithmetic. 3️⃣ During the pandemic, we built a disaster management and vaccine distribution system with the amazing Flutter framework & Google Cloud. The city of Shreveport and local universities were using this to help their communities stay supported. It was an incredible experience and I'd do it again!
