About Me

Advancing Medical AIThrough Vision & Reasoning.

Developing intelligent medical imaging systems through computer vision, multimodal reasoning, and generative AI.

Academic Background

AI Researcher

PhD in Computer Science and Mathematics

Yeshiva University

I am a PhD researcher in Computer Science and Mathematics at Yeshiva University, specializing in computer vision, multimodal learning, and medical artificial intelligence.

My research investigates how visual understanding, language-guided reasoning, and geometric learning can be integrated to develop more capable and reliable AI systems. My work spans medical image segmentation, generative modeling, diffusion models, and three-dimensional vision.

I am passionate about translating fundamental research into practical AI applications and contributing to research scientist, applied scientist, and computer vision engineering teams.
