A Brief Bio
Hi there, my name is Griffin and here's a little bit about me.
I am currently an AI researcher at Centific in the AI Vision R&D Lab. I hold a Ph.D. in Industrial & Systems Engineering from Lehigh University, received in 2025 under the supervision of the department chair Prof. Luis Nunes Vicente, and I am a former member of the Optimization & Machine Learning (OptML) research group in the Industrial & Systems Engineering Department therein. Before pursuing a Doctorate degree, I received a Master of Science in Management Science & Engineering from Lehigh University in 2021 and a Bachelor of Science in Statistics, along with a Minor in Computer Science, from Utah Valley University in 2020.
I served as President of the Lehigh INFORMS Student Chapter and was a recipient of the ISE Ph.D. Student of the Year award during the 2023-2024 academic year. As an incoming graduate student at Lehigh, I was also awarded the Lawrence E. White Fellowship in 2020 to pursue a Master's degree.
When I'm not working on research, I enjoy spending time with my amazing wife exploring the quaint coffee shops and bookstore. In my spare time, I also enjoy playing the piano, exercising, and studying the core branches of philosophy: logic, epistemology, metaphysics, and axiology. I may keep an updated journal / blog of this journey in the "Logos" tab.
