Secured $1.5M in non-dilutive U.S. federal funding as proposal co-author, delivering an AI-driven simulation platform deployed to 40+ U.S. embassies. Built agentic-AI automation and co-led the 0→1 journey, reaching ~$1–2M annual revenue while leading 16 people across 3 globally distributed teams.

Partnered with enterprise and healthcare stakeholders to turn ambiguous needs into delivered solutions, closing recurring engagements of $50K–$100K each across 12+ organizations. Led a cross-functional team of 10 to ship 20 real-time 3D simulation products and cut delivery cycle time up to 80% through automation-driven workflows.

Built a cloud platform (Azure SQL) hosting a VR/XR research environment with a data-collection database and analytics for an NIH-funded study. Implemented role-based access control and aligned the system with ethics, security, and data-governance standards, delivering a reusable, documented API toolkit built for 1,000+ users.

Trained a custom deep-learning speech (ASR) model in Python/TensorFlow, building the full data and training pipeline for an offline assistive device. Contributed to 15+ European/national R&D projects, co-authoring winning technical proposals, and authored/co-authored 18+ peer-reviewed articles on medical data analysis and immersive learning.

As Technical Orchestrator on a €3.9M EU Horizon 2020 Parkinson's digital-health study, owned the full Azure cloud data lifecycle (Blob, Functions, web services) plus AWS S3, securely capturing 30K+ records from 800 participants. Co-authored 5+ scientific publications and delivered 10+ talks on Azure/cloud at innovation events.

Built real-time 3D training simulations (Mass Casualty Incident, Safety Protocol), reaching 500+ users globally and piloted in a major hospital. Delivered 4+ high-performance simulation solutions and complex multi-victim scenarios optimized for low-spec devices.

Built mixed-reality and augmented-reality medical-education modules (anatomy & physiology) and Android apps, measurably improving student engagement. Designed and shipped CRM web applications (ASP.NET, SQL Server) that streamlined administrative workflows for healthcare and academic institutions.

Built the Greek Labour Inspectorate platform (WPF/Windows desktop, IoT/GPS sensors) for scheduling and reporting of transport inspections, plus Windows and Android/iOS apps across 3 national projects. Contributed to Docutracks, a digital-signing web app (Angular/.NET).

Co-developed a medical-imaging R&D tool automating white-blood-cell detection in lab samples (87% accuracy in initial lab validation), 2 national awards + 2014 Microsoft Imagine Cup global semifinalist.

Delivered 40+ talks and mentored 300+ students in software development (C#, XAML, mobile).

Developed forecasting and decision-support applications for the ARCHIMEDES IV national research program, integrating 500+ environmental and road-condition data points with pattern-recognition algorithms for real-time road-safety prediction.

Doctoral research in Biomedical/Medical Engineering, building a modular VR + biosensor + AI platform for surgical training and intra-operative cognitive support.
