I am currently in graduate school full-time at Boston University, working on my Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering. I have recently transitioned my research focus from Micro-Electromechanical systems (MEMS) into the field of Nanotechnology, more specifically nano-materials, plasmonics and photonics.  My current research aims to create, design and engineer novel metal-dielectric deterministic aperiodic structures (DANS) for the demonstration of broadband, angular-insensitive, enhanced light-matter interaction.

Prior to returning to graduate school, I worked at Analog Devices Inc. (Cambridge, MA) investigating wafer level hermetic capping of various MEMS devices for consumer, automotive and industrial applications. In the past I have worked on wireless MEMS pressure sensors, MEMS flow sensors (Integrated Sensing Systems, Inc.) and explored LPCVD of SiC for MEMS applications as a graduate student (M.S.) at Case Western Reserve University.
