01 / Featured

Evidence, not inventory.

Four case studies that show how I frame problems, make engineering decisions, verify results, and communicate limitations.

01 Ongoing

UROP-funded research

Trustworthy AI for medical documentation

An ongoing research prototype connecting speech recognition, transcript processing, document generation, and validation mechanisms for safer AI-assisted clinical documentation.

02 / Focus

One engineer. Three connected tracks.

The model, the signal entering it, and the production system around it are parts of the same engineering problem.

The throughline

From a split keyboard in Kazakhstan to trustworthy medical AI in Boston.

I started by designing hardware I wanted to use. That curiosity expanded into computer science, electrical engineering, speech and signals, production software, and now reliable AI systems for healthcare.
