Every experiment begins with a question.

I work across bioengineering, cellular systems, quantitative imaging, and scientific visualization to make complex ideas visible.

About

Science is not only discovered. It is also communicated.

Eight years of research taught me how to ask questions. Visualization taught me how to help others understand the answers.

I am a Ph.D. researcher working across bioengineering, cellular biology, electrochemical interfaces, quantitative imaging, biosensors, and closed-loop control.

Selected work

Research made visible.

01 · Localized pH

Electricity, fluorescence, and the chemistry surrounding a living cell.

Electrical stimulation becomes charge. Charge becomes fluorescence. Fluorescence becomes a local measurement of extracellular pH.

02 · Calcium

Signals moving through life.

Live-cell fluorescence reveals calcium dynamics while closed-loop control asks whether a biological response can be guided in real time.

03 · Experimental Architecture

The invisible machine behind biological measurement.

Devices, electrodes, amplifiers, data acquisition, microscopy, and code form the architecture behind the experiment.

Practice

I begin with the mechanism, the evidence, and the question. Then I shape them into something visible.
