I am a nuclear engineer and AI researcher with a strong background in digital twin modeling, plasma kinetics, radiation effects, and meta-analyses in clinical AI. My research spans from CNT radiation detectors to machine learning optimization of plasma systems, with work published and presented across global institutions and conferences.
Experience
Built digital twin models in Python simulating hydrogen, SF6, and NF3 plasmas. Co-authored AVS 2025 submission.
Illinois Plasma Institute (Remote)Led systematic review of 457 studies, co-authored a manuscript under review by Duke leadership. Focus: mortality and outcome bias.
Duke Heart Center (Remote)Modeled and evaluated CNT-based radiation detector systems. Supported Python-based performance analysis.
Jadoo Technologies Inc., BerkeleySimulated irradiation damage using SRIM and MCNP for fusion magnets. Led proposals to LANL and HZDR.
