Roles
Student Research Intern, AI/ML for Biomedical Imaging
Deep learning for ocular signal and image analysis. Built preprocessing, feature extraction, and sequence-modelling pipelines for vertical EOG data.
Contributions
- Built preprocessing, feature extraction, and sequence modelling pipelines for vertical EOG data.
- Implemented BiLSTM architectures for blink-phase segmentation across normal and dry-eye cohorts.
- Ran model validation and statistical analysis. Wrote up the results for ARVO 2026.
Econometrics and Applied Research Intern
Applied econometrics on confidential macro-financial and institutional datasets, including panel regression and time-series methods.
Contributions
- Panel regression and time-series methods on macro-financial panels.
- Statistical inference, robustness checks, and empirical validation in Python.
- Contributed to draft research outputs through quantitative modelling and documentation.
AI/ML & Research Intern
LLM input/output validation and adversarial testing for enterprise security settings.
Contributions
- Designed an input/output validation pipeline for enterprise LLMs covering intent classification, keyword filtering, and sentiment-aware response controls.
- Evaluated model behaviour under adversarial and edge-case prompts to improve compliance posture.
- Worked with security analysts to align outputs against legal, ethical, and operational risk constraints.

Leadership
Student-run tech club. Guided project teams, ran workshops, and helped peers through the research and technical deep-ends.
Led PR and outreach for coding events. Mostly the unglamorous logistics that decide whether a workshop fills up.
Contributed to content strategy for innovation and entrepreneurship events.
