I recently graduated from The University of Texas at Austin with a degree in Computer Science. While there, I was fortunate to be advised by Professor Amy Pavel, where we developed a video editing tool for converting long-form videos into short-form videos. I also spent a summer in the Meyers Lab, supporting COVID-19 research through data collection and analysis. Last summer, I worked with Professor Amy Zhang at the University of Washington on helping users better align their algorithmically curated social media feeds with their reflective preferences. Currently, I’m a research assistant in Professor Andrew Head’s lab, where I’m developing tools around reasoning.

Outside of research, some of my interests include rock climbing, golf, Formula 1, college football, hanging out with friends, and coffee shops.
