Hello there!

I’m a Senior at Drexel University, completing the accelerated BS/MS in Biomedical Engineering program with specializations in Bioinformatics, Neuroengineering, and Biomedical Imaging.

Right now, I’m working on exploring Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and Agent systems leveraging large language models (LLMs). In particular, I’m exploring their applications in developing systems that leverage multimodal data to aid in providing clincal decision support.

I recently completed my final co-op working as a Data Scientist in the Non-Clinical Safety group at GSK where I worked on developing machine learning pipelines for analyzing biomedical imaging and spatial transcriptomics data.
