I am on the academic job market during the 2024-2025 year!
Hi, I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at MIT advised by Professor Deb Roy. I am affiliated with MIT Center for Constructive Communication and MIT Media Lab. #AI4Comm #NLP #HCI #CSS
My research goal is to foster a more pluralistic society with NLP. To achieve this goal, I develop NLP/ML models to understand human communication at scale and build human-AI systems to cultivate pluralistic human minds. My research focuses on the intersection of computational social science (CSS), human-computer interaction (HCI), and natural language processing (NLP), with a particular emphasis on large language models (LLMs).
Previously, I graduated with M.S. in Symbolic Systems from Stanford University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Professor Michael C. Frank. I was affiliated with both Stanford LangCog Lab and Stanford NLP Group. Before Stanford, I spent the best 4 years as an undergraduate in Computer Science and Linguistics at Emory University, where I worked with Jinho D. Choi in Emory NLP Lab. I have also enjoyed fun summers at AI2, Google, IBM, Apple, ETS, and CMU.
I welcome inquiries on PhD applications, research opportunities, and collaborations, particularly from underrepresented groups. I actively mentor students passionate about developing AI for social good.
