I’m a 5-th year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at the University of Washington, Seattle, advised by Prof. Ranjay Krishna and Prof. Alex Ratner. Before that, I was an undergraduate student in Computer Science at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jiawei Han.

Research Interests: My current research interests are interactive and data-centric AI/ML with an emphasis on faithful evaluation and effort-light approaches with applications in natural language processing, computer vision, foundation models, science, etc. I have contributed to many exciting projects including AutoGen, DataComp, and BLIP3.

My research is supported by 2024 Apple AI/ML PhD fellowship (Data-centric AI track) and OpenAI Superalignment Fellowship.

I’m passionate about mentoring and teaching. I was
