At Affymax, he directed departments focusing on advanced technologies in parallel synthesis, lead optimization (ADME), and research computing. He held Product Manager, Senior Scientist, and Application Scientist positions at Molecular Design Limited (MDL Information Systems) while designing, developing, and marketing chemical informatics software.
He has co-authored and contributed to over 50 publications and patents and has participated in several drug discovery programs in collaboration with academic and industry partners. He is also an advisor to several companies that leverage AI and data science. He is driven by the vision of transforming medicine and healthspan through the application of cutting-edge technologies and scientific insight.
He is a fitness enthusiast and drummer and particularly enjoys playing music with and recording sessions with different combinations of musicians in his music studio.

Below are a few samples from various "Mix-n-Match" sessions. Each week, different combinations of musicians are invited with no specific setlist or plan. Many have never played the song before or played together. We tend to only do a single run through for each song. Recording is continuous during a session using OBS which cycles through different cameras leveraging break detection between songs. Each session is like Gump’s box of chocolates - “You never know what you're gonna get."
