I have a deep passion for innovation and discovery. Throughout my career, I’ve led groundbreaking work at the intersection of microelectronics, biotechnology, and space exploration to solve urgent challenges on Earth and beyond.
As the founder of multiple technology ventures and inventor on over 50 patents and patent applications. I focus on developing powerful tools that make the invisible visible—bringing precision and speed to microbial detection, sterility testing, and quality control. I built my first company, Fluid-Screen, around a microchip I invented during my Ph.D. at Yale University, designed to detect bacterial contamination in minutes, without culturing. That research has since transformed into a platform technology for diagnostics and contamination control.
But I’ve always believed that innovation isn’t just about faster results—it’s about expanding what’s possible. That belief has taken me from microelectronics cleanrooms to pharmaceutical labs and next generation cancer research to space mission concepts. I proudly served as a Co-Principal Investigator on the MIT-led Venus Life Finder Mission, where our team explored how life could be detected in the clouds of another planet.
Whether I’m developing technologies for next-generation biomanufacturing or designing instruments to search for life on Venus, my mission is the same: challenge assumptions, lead bold teams, and push the frontier of science to make life safer, cleaner, and more connected.
I currently serve as a guest researcher at Brookhaven National Laboratory and lead the development of new analytical methods at Hener for advanced cell therapy and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
If you're passionate about solving the world's toughest problems—or curious about what’s next in diagnostics, space science, or technology leadership—I’d love to connect.
“We challenge the status quo and make the impossible happen.”
