Projects

Our City Forest  

Mobile application streamlining inventory management for Silicon Valley’s largest forestry nonprofit!

Built server-side QR generation system, enabling real-time tracking of diverse tree populations for nurseries and neighborhoods. Supports real-time bulk operations and role-based access control for public users, AmeriCorps members, and administrators.

React Native, TypeScript, Supabase, Expo, Retool

3D COVID-19 Lesion Segmentation  

Developed a robust 3D nnU-Net-based segmentation pipeline to improve the accuracy of CT classification processes distinguishing COVID-19 from other viral pneumonia.

Leveraged segmented lung masks and lobe localizations as post-processing steps to enhance performance. The pipeline demonstrated improvements over baseline models in Dice scores and other metrics, showcasing robustness and transferability across diverse COVID-19 CT datasets.

Immersive Mixed Reality  

Developed HoloLens-ready Mixed Reality system for dynamic disaster simulation on LiDAR-scanned campus environment. Scripted physics-based object manipulation and interactive particle elements. Conducted pilot studies to effect effectiveness against current methods, and published results.
