Bio

I am a Machine Learning Engineer and Researcher at Google Research developing embedded speech processing technologies. Before this, I was a Researcher at Vicarious AI studying neuroscience-inspired computer vision algorithms for object recognition. I hold a Ph. D in Systems Neuroscience from MIT and a M. Eng. in Biomedical Engineering from Imperial College London.

My research interests lie at the intersection of Computational Neuroscience, Machine Learning and Embedded Systems. Specifically, I hope to one day develop intelligent agents that see, act and, in turn, solve real-world problems.

I am originally from Singapore. In my spare time, I am a dog-dad to Tintin the Sheepadoodle
