Experiences

Jan 2026 – Present

Undergraduate Researcher

C-Stem Laboratories

Built an end-to-end AI-powered parking management platform (React, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Stripe) with a real-time computer vision pipeline for occupancy detection and an AI voice agent layer (Amazon Bedrock, Retell AI) that autonomously handles customer calls, bookings, and escalations. Added a live analytics dashboard for operations teams.

May – Sep 2025

Research Intern

STEM Advance Summer Research | Caldwell University

Built a clinical trial screening platform (React, Supabase, Render, Claude API) that automatically checks patients against trial criteria and classifies each as eligible, ineligible, needs review, or missing data, replacing manual chart review with a single automated pass. Added a prioritization system that ranks missing data by how many decisions it unblocks, so coordinators know exactly what to chase first. Used deterministic verdict logic on top of the Claude API for auditable, non-hallucinated results.

June – Aug 2024

Software Engineer Intern

Lura Health

Built a secure internal dashboard (React, Node.js, JWT auth) giving physicians real-time access to AI diagnostic outputs. Improved sensor data pipeline performance by tuning buffers and frame sizes, boosting throughput 30% and cutting packet loss.

April 2024 – Present

Co-Founder & Chief of Logistics

Caldwell Robotics & Makerspace | Caldwell University

Built a 70+ member campus engineering community, running robotics workshops and collaborative projects. Set up the makerspace's infrastructure and equipment workflows, assembled a CNC machine, and helped run a 250-person Robot Soccer Hackathon.
