Work
I’m working on Triplet— we discovered a novel physical pathway for multiphoton fluorescence. Before that, I helped start Cradle, a company developing reversible cryopreservation. I joined Cradle after undergrad as the first employee in fall of 2021 where I was Chief of Staff.
I’m attracted to early-stage science projects, mostly to do with the brain. I love helping people I believe in bring ideas into the world and the creativity and collaborative spirit that often comes with starting stuff.
Interests
I'm interested in how we discover knowledge/make sense of the world and feel excited to build tools for understanding biology and minds. I'm curious about various questions in neuroscience, perception, biology, and communication and would love to have more time for thinking about topics like thalamocortical system 1, 2, 3 and philosophy of mind 1, 2.
I wonder how neurotech may develop in our lifetime, how it could change the human experience (and subsequently society), and what we would learn about brains and consciousness in the process.
