About

Current graduate student at the University of Michigan in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Columbus Ohio

Research

I am pursuing innovations in health care to make it easier for doctors and nurses to save lives. My area of focus is currently in resistive memory (RRAM), a computer memory specialized for artificial intelligence. I hope to eventually utilize this technology to develop medical devices that can autonomously predict diseases in patients before they occur and rapidly respond with preventative measures
