My passion for engineering the future of medicine has led me to pursue opportunities to work on engineering research that has medical applications. During my undergraduate program at MIT, I conducted biomaterials research to develop better interfaces between electronics and biological tissues. During graduate school I developed a greater interest in biomechanics, mechatronics and controls and I have pursued research that enables me to further develop those skills. Currently, in my PhD program in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford, I am developing a cellphone-based diagnostic tool for sensory neuropathy.
