About

I earned my bachelor's and master's degrees in Computer Science with an AI concentration at Stanford University. Last summer, I worked on speech model infrastructure at Meta Superintelligence Labs, with prior experience in applied AI at AWS and Quizlet. Understanding the societal impacts of AI is deeply important to me; I spent the spring of 2024 at the Oxford Internet Institute studying digital economics and tech regulation. My research interests broadly span human-centered AI and sustainable computing.
