Recent activity

• 👨‍💻 My current research focuses on fast approximate inference for Bayesian hierarchical models and applications of these methods to complex public health data.
• 🎉 In summer 2024, I built a patent-pending multimodal ML product at RBC Amplify which was awarded the "Industry Disruptor Award" by top executives.
• 🧠 In April, I finished my undergraduate Neuroscience thesis, which involved Bayesian modeling of human tactile perception and learning and also designing a Computer Vision program to automatically zoom, crop and temporally segment videos of participants performing an experiment.
