• Helped unify HealthPulse's per-product models into one lightweight computer-vision pipeline that reads multiple rapid-test products and diseases from a single system; HealthPulse has been used with 2.5M+ rapid diagnostic tests for malaria, HIV and COVID-19 on low-cost phones
• Owned the detection, localization and classification stages of the interpretation models, and optimized them for constrained devices through regression testing, model-size and latency work
• Architected a generalized pathway for previously unseen test products, and designed the routing that sends each image to a fine-tuned or generalized model
• HealthPulse was independently evaluated at 96.8% agreement with an expert panel across 106,877 images in four countries (Lindblade et al., Malaria Journal, 2025)
• Architected the structured-data-extraction system that turns free-form health conversations into clinical records for LLM health companions used by 150,000+ people, and designed its scenario-based release-testing methodology (PSB 2027, first author)
• Mentors computer-vision engineers
