Head of Applied Science, Senior Product Manager

HumeAI

Welcome!

Hi! I’m an engineer focused on studying brain $\leftrightarrow$ emotion dynamics. Specifically, I use “small data” and control theoretic approaches in a systems-level perspective combining both science and product.

Right now, I’m a Senior Product Manager and Head of Applied Research at Hume AI - a startup aspiring to build ethical, effective AI/ML tools for nonverbal, emotionally anchored communication.

In a previous life, I studied deep brain stimulation (DBS) for severe psychiatric depression - through both empirical data and dynamical models. Move broadly, my interests sit at the intersection of medicine + AI/ML + critical perspectives on Neuro/Med/Deep Tech.
