Hi! I'm a computer scientist and PhD student with 7+ years of research experience in applied physics, biology, and machine learning. Driven by curiosity, I founded laser neuron™ out of interest in optical computing, which led to discovering a world of innovation within the semiconductor and quantum computing industry. Our mission is to connect scientists with investors to catalyze creative disruption in the compute market, and ease the path for scientists to successfully engage in entrepreneurship.
Beyond the lab, I'm interested in venture capital, specifically in identifying when research has the potential to spin out into industry. I'm also passionate about science communication, as I believe it holds the key to building a more informed and innovative future.
Feel free to reach out for opportunities, collaborations, events, mentorship, or simply to share cool science!
