Get in Touch

If you're building diagnostics, biosensors, or AI-enabled lab systems and need a technical and strategic partner, I'd love to hear from you.

Speaking

I'm glad to speak at conferences, on podcasts, and at company sessions. Topics I can cover from experience:

  • What a CLIA-waivable point-of-care device actually costs to build — cartridge COGS, instrument design, and the tradeoffs behind a sub-dollar disposable.
  • Electrochemistry versus optics in diagnostics: what you gain and give up when you read whole blood electrically.
  • When to build fast and when to build right — timing the move from discovery to delivery in a deep-tech startup.
  • Taking an IVD from bench to IRB-approved clinical study and FDA pre-submission.

For a bio and headshot, the CV (PDF) has the long form.

What I work on

Engagements run through Twenty Seven Labs: assay and sensor development, diagnostic system and cartridge design, instrumentation, and technical due diligence for teams building diagnostics and biosensors. Hands-on bench work as well as system design and strategic guidance.

I'm also glad to talk about advisory roles, research collaborations, and speaking on point-of-care diagnostics, electrochemical sensing, and building deep-tech companies.
