I am a first-year PhD student advised by Prof. Chris Callison-Burch at the University of Pennsylvania. I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics. During undergraduate, I was fortunate to be part of the TAUR Lab and advised by Prof. Greg Durrett.

My research interest is in Natural Language Processing.
