What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build inclusive, project-based programs and research collaborations that connect AI, computer vision, XR, sustainable technology, and industry needs while mentoring students toward real-world careers.

At SUNY Morrisville, I lead Gaming and Extended Reality curriculum development, built a VR/AR research lab, and teach Python, C#, C++, database management, and web design. I also coordinate academic programs and mentor students toward careers in gaming and information technology.

My research applies deep learning, computer vision, neuromorphic computing, and biomedical signal processing to solar fault detection, precision agriculture, LiDAR perception, healthcare, and autonomous systems. I bring more than a decade of teaching, laboratory development, and engineering experience, including modernizing engineering labs at Pacific Lutheran University and developing automated diagnostic processes for electrical distribution systems at GECOL.
