I’m a Software Engineer on the Research & Development team at Angle Health and a researcher affiliated with the Cognitive Computation Group at the University of Pennsylvania, led by Prof. Dan Roth. I’m broadly interested in representation learning — how to build representations that support reasoning, generalization, and adaptive behavior.
During my undergraduate years at Penn, I was fortunate to work with Professors Dan Roth, Michael Kearns, and Ryan Cotterell, all of whom shaped my interest in AI. I was also drawn to arithmetic combinatorics, which still informs how I think about structure in learning.
