About Me

I am a PhD candidate at NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, CILVR group, advised by Rajesh Ranganath and Thomas Wies, and a student researcher at Google DeepMind. I work on deep generative models and machine learning for health and science. I’m also a part of the STAT research group at the NYU Center for Data Science. Currently I organize the “generative model foundations” weekly meeting at Courant which brings together CS and math researchers to understand recent generative models together (PIs Eric Vanden-Eijnden, Joan Bruna, and Jon Niles-Weed).

I’ve started looking for postdoc positions + jobs for summer/fall 2025. Feel free to reach out about this!

In a previous life

I was a research assistant and teaching fellow in the computer science department at Harvard SEAS. Previous to that, I studied music composition, improvisation, and theory at New England Conservatory with Anthony Coleman, Stratis Minakakis and Ran Blake. I am still involved with music and rehearse with Gamelan Kusuma Laras a classical Javanese ensemble that performs the repetoire of the courts of Central Java.
