As CTO of Counterforce AI, I lead the development of a Trust Defense as a Service (TDaaS) platform designed to detect, map, and respond to AI-amplified threats against institutional trust in real-time. It represents a structural counter-industry response to the commercialized ecosystem of disinformation—rooted in years of health equity research and crisis informatics. Trust in critical institutions—health systems, defense agencies, and emergency responders—is under systematic attack; generative AI has removed cost and skill barriers to industrialized misinformation campaigns. Traditional detection tools are retrospective; Counterforce addresses what to do before damage occurs. Three pillars: SEE (real-time multimodal detection—MedContext deployed at 91.4% accuracy for medical misinformation); MAP (graph neural network analysis of narrative spread, in development); ACT (operational response including pre-bunking and counter-messaging, in development).

Interdisciplinary research dedicated to equity, trust, and resilience in crisis response. In times of crisis—from pandemics to climate emergencies—misinformation undermines trust in science and exacerbates health inequities. This work brings together frontline clinical expertise, cutting-edge AI, and global health leadership to transform evidence into action. Research pillars: Trust & Crisis Intelligence (AI tools to detect and counter misinformation); Resilient & Equitable Health Systems; Equity-Driven Interventions. Innovations from this research seed the Counterforce AI platform—a unique pipeline from evidence to actionable systems deployed at scale.

Private consulting, strategic guidance, and investment in global health, technology, and AI readiness.

Multimodal detection across open and social sources, achieving 91.4% accuracy in detecting medical misinformation—particularly authentic images paired with false claims. Evaluates contextual authenticity rather than content alone. Submitted to the Kaggle MedGemma Impact Challenge. Powers the SEE (real-time detection) pillar of the Counterforce AI platform.
