About

Current direction

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Biomedical Engineering at the University of British Columbia, advised by Prof. Purang Abulmouselmi. My interests include multimodal AI, computer vision, medical imaging, natural language processing, and ML systems for reliable model evaluation.

My recent M.S. thesis research at RPI focused on trustworthy AI for radiology, especially discriminative fact-checking models that verify whether AI-generated chest X-ray reports are clinically consistent with medical images. This work led to multiple peer-reviewed publications, a filed patent, the RadCheck dataset, and the 2026 UC Berkeley Data Science Changemaker Award.

On the implementation side, I work with Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, Slurm-managed GPU clusters, distributed training and evaluation workflows, CI/CD testing, Git/GitHub, VS Code, Jupyter, and Claude-assisted development.
