About

I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Computer Science at Cornell University. Prior to this, my academic journey began in the realm of Mathematics, where I focused on number theory during my time as a Ph.D. student at Cornell. However, my passion for Computer Science led me to transition my doctoral studies to delve deeper into optimization, machine learning, and dynamics.

My research is centered around the fundamental principles of data-driven methods in decision making, with a keen eye on their applications spanning from recommender systems to the field of robotics. I have the privilege of working alongside Sarah Dean, a collaboration that continually enriches my academic pursuits.

I have partnered with a nonprofit organization Oxfam, setting up a pipeline to utilize Natural Language Processing (NLP) and data science methodologies in reading social media at scale. This initiative is aimed at amplifying Oxfam's outreach to the world, reflecting a deep-seated ongoing interest of mine.

in my free time I like to read, climb, travel and indulge in curiosity to explore everything around me! classical music holds a special place in my heart, and I am rekindling my love for playing the violin.
