Data Science π± Neuromorphic Computing π± AGI
The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.β - Steve Jobs
I am a Data Scientist and AI researcher at NASAβs Space Mission Analysis Branch within the Systems Analysis and Concepts Directorate, and a PhD student in Data Science at NU studying neuromorphic computing and cooperative game theory for AI. I combine rigorous financial and systems analysis for multi-billion-dollar aerospace programs with research-driven AI and ML engineering to advance robust, scalable intelligence for high-consequence domains.
At NASA I architect data pipelines, real-time decision analytics, and technical risk models that protect mission integrity across procurement, schedule, and operations. I apply modern ML methods from probabilistic modeling and uncertainty quantification to deep scalable learning and neuromorphic accelerators to convert static financial artifacts into dynamic, explainable decision systems. I also serve as an agency-level AI advisor, bridging research, systems engineering, and strategic policy across NASA and industry partners.
My research agenda focuses on practical and theoretical pathways toward safe, cooperative, and generalizable AI. I study neuromorphic hardware-software co-design to reduce latency and energy cost for continual online learning, and I use cooperative game theory to formalize multi-agent credit assignment, incentive alignment, and distributed value learning. I seek architecture and evaluation paradigms that are both scientifically audacious and immediately useful for aerospace and other safety-critical systems.
