About Me
I am a Computer Science PhD student at Vanderbilt University, working with Dr. Ipek Oguz in the Medical Image Computing Lab (MedICL). My research is also affiliated with the Vanderbilt Institute for Surgery and Engineering (VISE). I previously graduated summa cum laude with a B.S. in Computer Science from California Baptist University.
My research broadly spans Machine Learning, but my current focus is using deep learning for image restoration and generation, particularly in the medical domain. I'm also interested in how learned representations can maintain robustness across diverse imaging tasks under limited supervision.

Current Work
I am currently using deep learning and representation learning to restore high-resolution 3D OCT Angiography volumes, particularly those affected by motion-induced corruption.
Previously, I was a Software Engineer at GE Vernova, where I led our wildfire forecasting initiative, including the training, productization, and visualization of ML pipelines with power grid applications. I also co-led a company-wide initiative to integrate Generative AI into GEV's Electrification Software products.
