2012

I had really horrible acne. One day I forgot to take my antibiotics. I didn't hear the end of it from my dermatologist. Turns out medication compliance is important. Built a medication compliance app under the name Apothecary.

2016

Realized that cancer drug discovery is done horribly wrong because the mouse models and cancer models aren't characterized from a mechanical viewpoint. Went to 🇬🇧 to do a Ph.D. to understand cancer evolution from a biomechanics point of view. 

2020

COVID. 🤧. Sat at home all day. Figured out that GSK needed someone to do Pix2Pix GAN to convert brightfield images of liver biopsies to H&E and did just that.

2021

Did more digital histopathology-type computer vision stuff for Regeneron. Lost a little bit of interest in that...

2022

Became passionate about applying my expertise in something really important and needed in our local communities. Gun Detection AI / Slip and Fall AI. Really interesting real-time AI analytics on videos. Really happy.
