I keep busy teams organized, communicate clearly with people at every level, and dig into data or technical problems when the work calls for it. Open to roles in research, HR, operations, and admin. US citizen, no sponsorship needed.
I'm someone who likes keeping systems and people in sync. That might mean running the front desk of a busy tax office, sourcing candidates for an HR product, or teaching myself a technical project from scratch. The through-line is the same: listen carefully, stay organized, and finish what I start.
Most recently I worked as an HR Product Intern at EMRA AI and as Office Manager at H&R Block, where I was promoted within six weeks. On my own time I also built an EEG decoding project that classifies imagined movement with up to 83% accuracy. I like work where communication, detail, and curiosity all matter.

Reading movement intent from EEG
Decoding imagined movement from scalp EEG. 83% accuracy on a four-way choice where guessing scores 25%.
I trained a compact neural network (EEGNet, 3,508 parameters) to tell which of four movements a person was imagining: left hand, right hand, feet, or tongue, from four seconds of scalp EEG. On held-out recordings from a different day, it reaches 83% on the best subject and 57.7% averaged across nine people. Chance is 25%.

Pooled model beats nine personal models
Brain-computer interfaces let people control devices by imagining movement. The hard part is that EEG is noisy, low-resolution, and different for every person. I built a decoder for the four-class motor imagery task on the BCI Competition IV-2a dataset: given four seconds of scalp EEG, decide which of four movements the person was imagining.
The model is EEGNet, deliberately tiny at 3,508 parameters, since EEG datasets are small and large models just memorise. I band-pass filtered to 4-38 Hz (the mu and beta rhythms where motor imagery lives), cut the recordings into labelled trials, and trained on one session while testing on a second session recorded on a different day, so nothing leaks between them.
The best subject reaches 83% against a 25% chance baseline. Across all nine subjects the average is 57.7%, ranging from 38% to 84%. That 45-point spread reflects a real, unsolved problem in the field, not a flaw in the pipeline. Training one shared model on all nine subjects instead beats the per-subject average, reaching 61.7%.
Key results
83.0% four-class accuracy on the best subject (chance: 25%)
78.1% mean over five retrains, range 70.5-81.6% (the honest spread)
57.7% mean across all nine subjects, range 38.5-84.0%
61.7% for a single model pooled across all subjects, beating nine personal models

Methods
Data: BNCI2014_001 (BCI Competition IV-2a), 9 subjects, 26 channels at 250 Hz, two sessions each. Preprocessing: 4-38 Hz band-pass, rescaled to microvolts, epoched into 4-second trials around each cue (288 train / 288 test per subject). Model: EEGNet via braindecode, Adam at lr 0.0625, batch size 32, 100 epochs. Evaluation: session 1 trains, session 2 tests. A cross-day split, never a random shuffle of trials.
