Present:

I am a Data Science Fellow at LMI. There, I have served as machine learning lead for the LIGER platform, modeled the climatic and operational impacts of synthetic jet fuel, developed software for maritime logistics, and more.

I am also a computer science PhD candidate at GW, advised by Howie Huang. My work primarily pertains to natural language processing and computational social science; see my research page for more.

I am grateful to have been recognized as a DARPA Riser, Luminary Awardee (LMI), and Bernstein Scholar (Institute for Quantitative Biomedicine).

Past:

I completed my master’s at Johns Hopkins under Tom Woolf. Before that, I studied math and computer science at Rutgers and worked in the Moghe Lab.
