I don't have an office, but you can find me in Santa Clara, CA
I’m a second year PhD student working with Jeff Flanigan at UC Santa Cruz. Previously I worked at Amazon AI with the AGI team on problems in open-domain QA. Previously previously I worked on computer vision, specifically semantic segmentation with Piyush Kumar at CGI.

research interests
I have a wide range of interests, but primarily work in the intersection of mathematics and AI/NLP on problems such as automated theorem proving and autoformalization. Currently I am working on a project in autoformalization of mathematics into a formal language like Lean.
I also enjoy learning math and applying it in fun/novel ways to AI.
