Hello! I am a first year PhD student in the Linguistics department at Boston University, advised by Najoung Kim and Sophie Hao. I am broadly interested in language and cognition, linguistic representations in language models, and language acquisition.

Previously, I graduated from UC Berkeley with a B.A. in Linguistics and a B.A. in Computer Science, where I was fortunate to work with Terry Regier in the Language and Cognition Lab. Before that, I worked with the TiLab at Berkeley, advised by Grigory Tikhmirov on a VR application for DNA nanotechnology. I am also grateful to have spent six unforgettable semesters TAing for UC Berkeley's Data Structures (CS61B) course.

Outside of research and academics, I've enjoyed working and interning at several startups, Optum, and Veeva Systems as a software engineer. In my free time, I enjoy rock-climbing, hiking, running, reading, and playing board/word games.
