I am currently a second year Computer Science PhD candidate at Stanford University, and I am honored to be advised by Professor Russ Altman. My research focuses on the development and application of machine learning methods for equitable and effective healthcare.

Prior to this, I worked as a Machine Learning Engineer at insitro, a biotech company led by Daphne Koller that utilizes machine learning for drug discovery and development. I received my B.A. in Computer Science at UC Berkeley and conducted research at Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR) Laboratory, where I worked on long-horizon visual planning and representation learning under Pieter Abbeel and Aviv Tamar.

When I'm not thinking about research, I enjoy reading, listening to podcasts on long runs, and cooking vegetables.
