GSP-09 Student, Singularity University
Singularity University Scholarship Recipient
I have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to study and work in engineering, medicine, obesity therapy and as a professional cellist. As a product of these experiences I examine my universe through the mathematical precision of physics and the profoundly dynamic and imprecise physiology of the human body. Having lost 150 pounds and counseled obese patients in several countries for over 10 years, it is my hope to combine my passion for preventive medicine, experience and education to make a significant impact on public heath.
