ABOUT

I am a fourth-year PhD student in Computer Science at the University of California, Irvine, advised by Professor Erik Sudderth. My research interests are probabilistic graphical models, non-parametric belief propagation, sequence models as well as other machine learning/computer vision fields. Previously, I worked as a software engineer at Modal AI, a software engineer at Tyvak (now Terran Orbital) and as an intern at Qualcomm. I received an M.S. in Computer Science and a B.S. in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of California, Irvine.
