How I Use AI
Leveraging AI as a force multiplier across engineering, innovation, and regulated product development.
When the software you write goes into a device implanted in someone's brain, you can't afford to be wrong. I use AI to draft, analyze, and pressure-test my work — but every decision still runs through a decade of building FDA-cleared systems. AI makes me faster; experience makes me right.
AI-Augmented Development
AI-powered coding assistants accelerate my daily workflow — from writing and refactoring code, to generating unit tests, drafting documentation, and reviewing architecture decisions in real-time.
AI in Medical Device Innovation
Exploring how AI and ML can transform DBS therapy — from predicting tremor onset using neural signal patterns, to personalizing stimulation parameters and automating electrode selection for optimal patient outcomes.
AI for Regulatory Acceleration
Using AI to streamline requirements traceability, generate and validate test cases, and draft regulatory documentation — compressing compliance workflows that traditionally take months into days.
NLP Research Background
My master's research at NDSU focused on building an interactive visualization system for opinion mining and sentiment analysis — applying NLP to extract, categorize, and dynamically visualize multi-layered sentiment data from large-scale text.
AI as a Force Multiplier
In regulated environments where every line of code must be traceable and every decision auditable, AI serves as a thinking partner — expanding what a single engineer can accomplish while keeping safety, quality, and compliance non-negotiable.
Beyond Work
Travelling
Exploring new cultures, cities, and landscapes.
Food
Discovering local cuisines and hidden culinary gems wherever I go.
BMW Enthusiast
Passionate about the driving experience, engineering, and the Ultimate Driving Machine.
Road Trips
Long drives, scenic routes, and the freedom of the open road.
Anime
From epic shonen arcs to thought-provoking stories, always watching.
