About me
Hey, I’m a Machine Learning Scientist and Graduate Student at the MIT Center for Constructive Communication with Prof. Deb Roy. My research focuses on Natural Language Processing, applied to informational, social, and civic challenges.
Prior:
- An Applied ML Scientist at Apple.
- A researcher at Stanford NLP lab (2017), advised by Chris Manning and Danqi Chen.
- A resarcher at Salesforce Research (2016), supervised by Caiming Xiong and Richard Socher.
- Completed a BA in Economics (2016) and MS in Computer Science (2018) at Stanford University.
My research interests include the challenges of large language models, online information flows, and the algorithmic governance of online platforms. In my free time I enjoy plenty of sports, reading, and, when I can, creative writing.
