Lego.
Biomedical engineer, data scientist, EMT (first responder), and very occasional writer.
Outside of research and shifts, most of my time goes to LabNinja, which I'm building because precision genomics keeps stalling between the bench and the patient. The rest goes to language preservation through the Tani Language Foundation and a handful of side projects I keep promising myself I'll finish.

Real-time ECG Artifact Filter
A low-latency signal processing pipeline that strips motion artifacts from ambulance ECG traces in under 30 milliseconds, so paramedics see a clean trace mid-transport.
- 02
Tani Speech Corpus Pipeline
An end-to-end audio collection, alignment, and transcription pipeline for under-documented Tani languages, built so contributors with patchy internet can record from a phone.

LabNinja
A lightweight protocol versioning tool for wet labs, born out of frustration with handing off SOPs as Word documents that nobody opens twice.
