I’m a Senior Health AI Scientist working at the intersection of generative AI, agentic systems, and multimodal biomedical data. I build reliable, interpretable, and production-grade AI systems for real-world healthcare impact.
I currently work with the Enterprise AI organization at Humana, where I develop responsible generative AI and agentic architectures for large-scale healthcare workflows. Previously, I served as a Machine Learning Scientist in the Chief Data Office at the Fred Hutch Cancer Center in Seattle, WA, where I led the development and deployment of institution-wide clinical NLP and machine learning systems for automated, longitudinal phenotyping and cohort identification from large-scale EHR data.
Before industry, I completed my PhD and postdoctoral training in Biomedical Informatics and Computational Genomics at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine, where I worked with Dr. Dokyoon Kim’s Integrative ’Omics and Biomedical Informatics Lab. My dissertation focused on the development of graph-based machine learning methods to identify genetic contributors to disease comorbidities from large-scale, multimodal biomedical data. I also hold a Master’s degree in Statistics and Data Science from the Wharton School of Business, as well as undergraduate degrees in Statistics and Computer Science and a minor in Computational Biology from Duke University.
In addition to my industry work, I serve as a Guest Lecturer in the Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Informatics at the University of Pennsylvania, and I previously collaborated with the Health Futures Group at Microsoft Research on applied research at the intersection of biomedical discovery and emerging AI technologies.
I enjoy working at the boundary of research, engineering, and real-world deployment. My broader interests include responsible AI, generative models, translational informatics, personalized medicine, and human-centered system design. In my free time, I love exploring the PNW wilderness with my wife, taking our pup out for long walks around the neighborhood, and trying out new recipes in the kitchen.
