Themes

The five lenses through which I organize the work — revised from the original six to fit what the archive actually contains.

• Data, Models & Decisions

  From exploratory notebooks to business decisions.

  Applied analytics and machine learning across seven USC graduate courses, the Stanford Statistics course, and the INSPIRIT AI Fellowship — with an emphasis on taking models out of notebooks and into the decisions they should actually inform.

• Product, Prototype & Design

  Tangible artifacts from concept through critique.

  Physical, digital, and interactive prototypes spanning the Opportunity & Uncertainty studio, Technology Essentials, the PPR course, and the Capstone — where ideas became things you could hand to someone and watch them use.

• Systems & Operations

  How organizations actually run.

  Operations management, project delivery, and operational infrastructure — including DSO 510, DSO 580 Project Management, DSO 599 Operations & Infrastructure, and the systems-framing work in IDSN 550.

• Health, Ethics & Society

  Regulated-domain work and the frameworks it demands.

  The threads that run through healthcare, intellectual-property law, and the ethics of emerging technology — MEDS 220, the HIPAA certificate, Blumline user research, IDSN 428 IP Law, and essays on CRISPR and generative-AI regulation.

• Research & Directed Study

  Longer-form investigations that don't belong to a single course.

  Directed research, independent studies, and long-form essays where the scope is big enough that a single course can't contain it — including IDSN 590 Directed Research, Summer 2021 IPR work, and the Capstone project.
