Agreed. Universal income is coming.
There will be universal high income, not basic, in a positive AI future.View quoted post on X
No scarcity, except that which we define to be scarce.
In that scenario, everyone can have whatever goods & services they want.
It is less clear how we will find meaning in a world where work is optional.
Excited to see UMass Lowell highlight the Art in Science Image Competition and include my first-place image in its official news story!
Huge thanks to UMass Lowell and Brooke Coupal for covering the story and spotlighting the winning images. It was such a surprise (and a bit surreal) to see my face on campus TVs as part of the announcement!
Opportunities like this are a great source of motivation for students and a reminder of the value of creativity in research. Grateful to the Core Research Facilities (CRF) for organizing such an inspiring event.

🎉🥇I'm incredibly honored to have won 1st Place in the first-ever Art in Science Image Competition hosted by UMass Lowell’s Core Research Facilities (CRF) and sponsored by @JEOLUSA !
My image, “Eye of the Hurricane,” captures the beauty hidden in science through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) — where art and research meet in the most unexpected ways.
This SEM image, captured at 140× magnification with an accelerating voltage of 5 kV, reveals a striking “eye of the hurricane”-like structure that naturally formed within a gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)-based tissue engineering scaffold.
Huge thanks to the CRF team and JEOL for organizing this celebration of science through imagery.
I’m especially grateful to Dr. Ada for her guidance during my initial SEM training, and to Anna Maria Routsi for organizing this wonderful event and always being so supportive. I also want to sincerely thank Miguel Matos, who introduced me to SEM in the very beginning and has been incredibly helpful and supportive with imaging across many of my research projects. Grateful to be guided by true masters of focus — of both the beam and the researcher.
I'm still excited by the creative potential of imaging techniques and eager to produce even more inspiring visuals that blend science and art.

I'm honored to have been inducted into Alpha Alpha Alpha (Tri-Alpha), the National Honor Society for First-Generation College Students at UMass Lowell. Tri-Alpha is more than just an academic distinction—it’s a celebration of perseverance, community, and the journey many of us take as the first in our families to navigate higher education.
Although I couldn’t attend the induction ceremony due to a medical emergency, I’m proud to be part of this inspiring network of first-gen scholars.
Grateful for the recognition and excited to serve within this community.
