About Me
I'm a fifth-year PhD student in the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University. My primary research interests are in optimization and machine learning for applications in healthcare and medicine. I also have a BS in Computer Science and Applied Math from Johns Hopkins.
Ongoing Research
Time-Series Augmented Multimodal Large Language Models
Developing a multimodal LLM framework for time series prediction and analysis.
Predictive Hospital Capacity Management
Building models to predict surge demand and proactively optimize patient flow at the Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Supervised Inverse Optimization
Extending inverse optimization to incorporate outcome data or scores.
¶ AbstractMisinformation Tracking
Using LLMs to track the spread of misinformation across platforms.
Completed Projects

Optimal Hospital Capacity Management During Demand Surges
Developed models to optimize practical capacity management decisions in hospital systems during surge periods.

An Interactive Decision-Support Dashboard for Optimal Hospital Capacity Management
Built an interactive online dashboard to assist hospitals in making capacity management decisions during major demand surges.
Hospital Resource and Demand Redistribution for COVID-19
Developed models to make optimal patent and resource transfers between hospitals to reduce the burden of COVID-19 on healthcare systems.

Evaluating Epidemic Forecasting
Introduced the weighted contextual interval score, a new metric for evaluating quantile forecasts in context.
Phantom Alignment Strength in Weakly Correlated Graphs
Studied alignment strength of seeded graph matching for weakly-correlated graphs.

Detecting Sickle-Cell Retinopathy
Used deep learning to detect sickle-cell retinopathy from ultra-widefield fundus photography.

Automated Classification and Segmentation of Laryngeal Lesions
Instance segmentation for detecting two types of laryngeal lesions in endoscopic video.

Cataract Surgery Phase Identification
Contributed to a machine learning system for recognizing the current phase in cataract surgery from video as a step towards automated skill assessment.

AlphaTSP
Built a heuristic solver for the traveling salesman problem using Monte Carlo tree search and deep reinforcement learning, inspired by AlphaZero.
