👋 About Me
I am currently working in the tech industry, focusing on machine learning, artificial intelligence, large language models, agents, and recommendation systems.
I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer and Information Science from the University of Pennsylvania, where I worked on statistical machine learning for complex classification problems.
Prior to my Ph.D., I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Michigan, where I earned degrees in Honors Mathematics, Honors Statistics, Computer Science, and Data Science.

🔬 Research Interests
My current research focuses on large language models, agents, and recommendation systems.
My doctoral research focused on statistical machine learning for complex classification problems, with particular emphasis on:
- Learning from Noisy Labels: Designing algorithms that can learn good classifiers despite noisy training data, for both multiclass and multi-label learning problems
- Multi-Label Classification & Label Ranking: Developing effective learning algorithms for multi-label losses and various label ranking metrics
- Non-decomposable Performance Measures: Optimizing complex performance measures (F1, AUC, etc.) that cannot be decomposed per example
- Weakly Supervised Learning: Learning from missing or partial labels, and transfer learning
