  Using the tools of machine learning I am teasing out signals indicative of patient health, and predictive of major health events. In this role, I utilize my engineering and physics background to assess the quality and fidelity of readily available biosensors, use my skills of data analysis to process the signals from these sensors into interesting features, and rely on my knowledge of methods for statistical inference to build powerful, effective models of patient wellness.

• Electrical Engineer

  • Nov 2008 - Aug 2010

  • Created a system to record Biometric and GPS data implemented with 3 PIC processors on an accelerated time schedule. The design also met constraints to be compatible with existing hardware, exceeded Bit Error Rate requirements and has been deployed successfully in hundreds of tests. • Upgraded Data Acquisition System: Increased data rate, made the system extensible from three simultaneous measurements to many and incorporated a feedback system to validate measurements. Characterized the measurement systems to evaluate dither and determine noise and precision. • Designed, built and programmed 915 MHz wireless USB Device implemented with an Altera FPGA that handled USB and data demodulation in parallel to eliminate simultaneous interrupt errors. • Managed EmBand production: Coordinated 13 vendors and Contract Manufacturers. Managed a team of 3 full-time, in-house assemblers. Responsible for documentation and quality control. Show less
