Core Expertise

As a Cognitive Diversity Analyst, I develop AI-powered systems for early and accurate identification of learning differences, combining neurodevelopmental science, multimodal behavior analysis, and inclusive assessment design. My work transforms traditional diagnostic approaches into proactive, stigma-free support ecosystems.

Technical Capabilities

1. Early Detection Systems

• Subtle Marker Identification:

  • Created NeuroScan – A machine learning model analyzing 40+ micro-behaviors (eye tracking patterns, response latency, error consistency) with 89% accuracy in pre-screening

  • Integrated game-based assessments capturing cognitive processing differences in naturalistic contexts

• Multidimensional Profiling:

  • Developed strength-based classification models identifying coexisting talents (e.g., dyslexic advantage in spatial reasoning)

2. Inclusive Assessment

• Cultural/Linguistic Adaptation:

  • Designed bias-free evaluation frameworks validated across 15 language groups

  • Built dynamic test interfaces adjusting for motor/sensory differences

• Longitudinal Tracking:

  • Implemented progress differentiation algorithms distinguishing disabilities from instructional gaps

3. Stakeholder Empowerment

• Educator Tools:

  • Created classroom observation dashboards highlighting actionable intervention points

  • Developed differentiation suggestion engines tied to specific learning profiles

• Family Reporting:

  • Designed strength-focused visualization tools explaining results without deficit framing

Impact & Collaborations

• Major Initiatives:

  • Lead Scientist for UNESCO's Global Neurodiversity Screening Project

  • Advisor to CDC's Early Childhood Disability Identification Guidelines

• Open Resources:

  • Released NeuroDiverseDB – Largest dataset of non-clinical learning behavior markers

Signature Innovations

• Framework: The 3D Identification Model (Detect, Differentiate, Develop)

• Publication: "Beyond Labels: How AI Reveals the Continuum of Human Learning" (Nature Human Development, 2025)

• Award: 2025 International Dyslexia Association Breakthrough Prize

Optional Customizations

• For Schools: "Our system reduced over-identification of disabilities by 52% while catching 98% of true cases"

• For Clinics: "Cut evaluation time from 8 hours to 90 minutes through predictive analytics"

• For Media: "Featured in TED Talk 'The Gifts of Different Minds'"
