Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
Ph.D. student at the University of Pennsylvania, interested in how translational biology and artificial intelligence can transform how we understand disease—and ourselves. My background in Biological Sciences and Behavioral Neurobiology informs my research in drug development and cancer therapeutics, while my work with NūrAI brings that same scientific mindset into the startup world, building AI systems that decode human communication and emotional intelligence.
Engaged with technology transfer offices and inventors across Philadelphia to source and recruit promising early-stage technologies for Nucleate’s 2026 Activator program. Nucleate Philadelphia is a student-run nonprofit that empowers the next generation of life science entrepreneurs. Our equity-free Activator program supports academic founders tackling the world’s most pressing challenges in human health and sustainability by helping them transform cutting-edge science into scalable companies.
Building NūrAI, technology that listens to how we speak, not just what we say. At Nūr, we’re creating the world’s first Multimodal Social Intelligence Engine, decoding voice, tone, and emotion into biometric-level insights about confidence, empathy, and presence. We call it the Nūr Signal™, an adaptive metric for self-awareness and communication mastery. Powered by multimodal AI that fuses vocal data, behavioral cues, and physiological feedback, it helps people see themselves the way others experience them in real-time. Backed by leading voices in speech science, neuroscience, and behavioral communication — disciplines now unified through our patent-pending technology to illuminate the patterns behind human connection. We already track sleep, steps, and stress. Apple, Ōura, and Whoop taught us how to measure the body. Nūr teaches us how to measure human connection. Join the beta → https://mynur.ai/
