I am a Machine Learning Scientist at TikTok, where I develop recommendation system models and algorithms that align with user preferences and adapt in real-time. Prior to this, I completed my PhD in the Computer Science Department at the School of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University (CSD of SCS at CMU), under the guidance of Professor Katia Sycara in the Robotics Institute. I also hold an undergraduate degree in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from Brown University, where I worked with Professor George Konidaris, Professor Carsten Binnig, and Professor Tim Kraska.

My research focuses on building intelligent systems that assist humans by understanding their needs and providing personalized, actionable support. I specialize in developing machine learning and reinforcement learning models for real-world applications. These models not only enhance user experience but also play a critical role in advancing intelligent robotic systems that can learn from and interact with humans in a trustworthy manner.

In recent years, my work has focused on utilizing robotics learning strategies for recommendation systems. I am particularly interested in creating models that improve performance based on user feedback, ensuring both safety and efficiency in real-world applications. I envision a promising future for intelligent autonomous systems, particularly in their diverse applicable fields.

I have had the privilege of collaborating with many exceptional researchers throughout my career and continue to look forward to new opportunities for impactful collaboration.
