Highlights
March 2025. Check out my latest iOS apps: (1) Popops: A simple and lightweight take on “whack-a-mole” heavily inspired by retro arcade video games, and (2) WWYD - What would you do? A community-driven platform where users respond to daily hypothetical and real-world scenarios, then compare their choices with others.
February 2025. Humbled to deliver my first invited address at the International Conference on Web 6.0 and Industry 6.0 (WIn 6.0), featuring my paper, “Enhancing transparency in buyer-driven commodity chains for complex products: a blockchain-based traceability framework demonstrated through an apparel supply chain simulation.”
November 2024. Presented my paper at the 6th International Conference on Industry 4.0 and Smart Manufacturing under the “Integrating Novel Technologies for Supply Chain Performance” track in Prague. Passed my PhD A exam, which formalizes my PhD candidacy, and earned an M.S. on the way!
August 2024. Grateful to have served as a Research Mentor for the inaugural Student Research Institute organized by Harvard's Undergraduate OpenBio Laboratory. Stay tuned for a link to my (high school) mentee and my project on heart failure prediction with deep learning and explainable AI, which will soon be published as a Scopus indexed book chapter.
May 2024. Excited to leverage the AWS Public Sector Cloud Credit for Research award: here's to less frugality with Amazon Bedrock!
April 2024. Attended the Cornell Blockhain Conference 2024 hosted at Cornell Tech: a super rewarding experience which included insightful panels such as one on the regulation of the crypto market with a senior policy advisor from Coinbase, and another on the expansion of NFTs at Christie's and Sotheby's with reps from both.
March 2024. Honored to accept the invite to serve as a research mentor for the inaugural Student Research Institute (SRI) by the Harvard Undergraduate OpenBio Lab. Excited to conduct an original research project alongside my assigned mentee this summer!
