NEUROTECH X ART
Building Mental Mirrors
I use EEGs to shorten the feedback loops between research and creation through immersive storytelling
My past work includes a “thought cube” which changes color based on mental state, as well as EEG-assisted telekinesis, where degree of relaxation changes the speed at which virtual objects distort.
Currently, I am working on some VR game development that utilizes neurofeedback.
LED ART INSTALLATIONS
Building a Neuron-inspired Intersensory Dome
With a few amazing artists at Burning Man, we created an audio-visual-tactile experience featuring suspended wire LED neuron-like art sculptures, and a rumbling bass / massage floor synced to audio — to create an immersive experience to simulate as if you were inside a brain.
OTHER GRAPHIC DESIGN
Nameplay with Illustrator
A sampling of my graphic design work in Adobe Illustrator – this includes different renditions and styles of my name, as well as other typography effects.
Coding and Hackathon Projects
HIGHLIGHTED CODING PROJECTS
OTHER PROJECTS
DIY HACKS FEATURE
Neon Lights
A fun project that incorporates both hardware / electronics practice, as well as a more traditional art medium of watercolor.
The juxtaposition of analog and digital in one piece allows for a more interpretive and modern twist on more familiar styles.
TECHNICAL ANALYSES
Data Analyses, Modeling and Forecasting
My work includes data analysis and visualization, modeling outcomes and forecasting, and creating / designing research experiments and surveys.
During my investment banking analyst years at Goldman Sachs, I helped close a $10B buy-side merger and acquisition deal to create the world’s largest gold company to date.
I gained technical skills and financial experience building merger consequences models with flexible architecture for cases — analyzing accretion and risk impact scenarios.
During my fellowship at Rock Health, I partnered with the founder and Research Director to design research initiatives fulfilled through literature review and (600+) user interviews, and co-authored a report on the topic of diversity in healthcare.
The next year, I constructed a gender equality forecasting model to predict the impact of existing trajectories.
This report includes some additional data visualization and number crunching that I contributed on consumer adoption trends.
At a healthcare startup, Evidation Health, I built multiple models to inform business and product decisions, inclusive of KPI and dashboard metrics.
Two consumer healthcare projects I helped launch:
• Heartline: research study and consumer healthcare education program for seniors – in partnership with Apple and Johnson & Johnson
• LumiHealth: personalized wellness app to gamify healthcare outcomes – in partnership with Apple and HPB (Singapore government)
During the start of COVID-19, I worked with a friend to build a model that tracked trends at a global macro level, as well as a state-level.
It also included a US forecasting model to see what would happened if we enacted different lockdown procedures inspired by different countries and reflected the impact of early enforcement.
Our model was passed along to multiple people in the government and was eventually reviewed by the head of the senate intelligence committee.
