Technical analytics Prepared datasets, data quality checks, quantitative analysis, dashboards, and recurring reports with documented methods.
Research program support Work plans, milestone and deliverable registers, proposal coordination, technical reports, and organized project records.
Non-attest finance operations Budget models, cost tracking, reconciliations, reporting workbooks, and supporting records for research and business operations.

Principal research experience

Research at the University of Washington.

Mo RiGesefal brings project and technical experience from the Sensors, Energy, and Automation Laboratory (SEAL).

FHEEI

Mo serves as day-to-day project manager and technical contributor for the Fume Hood Energy Efficiency Initiative. His contributions include new sensing modules and orchestration on an inherited firmware platform.

RadGuard

RadGuard is a University of Washington research proposal for an AI companion for radiation-risk mitigation in occupational emergencies. Mo’s related research contributions focus on benchmarks, source-traceable response evaluation, and review workflows.

These examples describe Mo’s individual university research contributions and are separate from MSA corporate past performance.

Support for a prospective FHEEI role

SEAL Director Professor Alexander Mamishev has signed a letter supporting evaluation of MSA for prospective FHEEI work in sensing, embedded firmware, data infrastructure, research, and technical support.

The letter supports UW consideration of MSA for prospective FHEEI project work.

Company overview

Washington based.
Built for focused work.

MSA is a Washington limited liability company formed in 2026. We welcome conversations about a defined research work package, technical support role, or program operations need.

Experience and past performance

Our principals bring individual research and finance experience to the firm. That experience belongs to the individuals and their roles at other organizations; it is distinct from MSA corporate past performance.

A useful first conversation

Bring the requirement. We will help define the work.

For a teaming inquiry, sources-sought response, or a potential scope of work, these details help us assess fit.

The objective

The research question or operational need, the expected deliverable, and any relevant solicitation or statement of work.

The working context

The role you have in mind, available data or equipment, collaborating teams, and any location or access requirements.

The decision window

The response deadline, anticipated period of performance, and the criteria that will determine whether the work is complete.

Start a conversation

A defined role. A clear next step.

Send a brief outline of the opportunity to Mo RiGesefal. We can discuss technical fit, the proposed scope, and the information needed to evaluate an engagement.
