Bio
Hello! My name is Bill, and I am the Founding Applied AI Engineer at Maven Bio. I graduated from Tufts University in May 2025 with a BS in Computer Science and minors in English and Mathematics.
My past work mainly deals with natural language processing. Specifically, I have worked on numerous projects centered around large language models, with topics including biomedical text simplification, information retrieval, and AI agents.
Before coming to Maven Bio, I was an AI Product Management Intern at Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks. There, I developed an agentic AI platform to automate various Product Management workflows.
Recent Projects
National Library of Medicine. I was previously a Summer Research Intern at the National Library of Medicine (NLM) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). As part of my internship, I developed JEBS, a novel biomedical lexical simplification task and dataset. I presented JEBS at ACL 2025 in Vienna, Austria.
Senior Capstone Project. During my senior year of college, I worked on a Senior Capstone Project. My team's client was ASLDeafined, an American Sign Language education website. We integrated an AI-powered, Duolingo-like activity generation system into their website.
