PhD candidate in biomedical engineering at Columbia University, working in the Laboratory for Neural Engineering and Control.

I research invasive neuromodulation and chronic stress resilience in mouse models. My toolkit: wet laboratory automation, agent deployment, stereotaxic surgery, AAV injections, chemogenetics, optogenetics, fiber photometry, snRNA-seq, behavior tracking.

I write for Palladium Magazine about biology, technology, and civilization. I'm interested in how biomedical engineering can reshape not just individual lives but the trajectory of human societies.
