projects/experiences
founded nexus neurotech @ stanford
I lead one of Stanford's largest engineering student orgs, organizing hardware & AI-focused makerspace projects, industry collabs with companiues like Neuralink and Science.xyz, and campus-wide demo days.
an eeg data pre-processing guidebook I made for beginners →deep learning for silent speech decoding
Using data from the Neural Prosthetics and Translational Lab (NPTL) Brain-to-text '25 dataset, I built a GRU-based phoneme decoder and conducted a study quantifying patient-specific neural data drift to better inform calibration techniques for the lab.
view project →bare-metal EEG-controlled robotic arm
I love embedded programming, and I coded a simple OS, from scratch, for this project. Here's what I did: 1) On a RISC-V Mango Pi MCU, I built a simple OS (communication protocols, printf, memory management, keyboard protocol, interrupts). 2) I'm building a custom-EEG acquisition system, with a custom-built headset and the OpenBCI Cyton Board. 3) I'm writing a neural data preprocessing framework on the Mango Pi (filters, artifact removal, ICA)
building a satellite @ stanford space initiative
I'm working on a team that is building a cube-sat bound for orbit in the Spring. Here's what I do: 1) Get the satellite to understand where it is above Earth, and where it's pointing: wrote drivers for various sensors and actuators and wrote control loops to activate actuators in C. 2) Wrote Kalman filtering algorithms for state estimation and worked closely with custom chip layouts and MCUs for hardware-in-the-loop testing. 3) A LOT of system-level engineering to make sure different repos are talking with each other effectively and that each repo is designed with a finite-state-machine architecture.
here's the satellite!
AI & VR research, virtual human interaction lab @ stanford
I developed a cognitive state monitoring system by integrating EEG, EMG, and eye-tracking with real-time ML, and designed an underwater VR study with 90 participants.
