I am a current MS student in ECE, specializing in Machine Learning, at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I graduated in May 2025 from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a B.S. in Computer Engineering and minors in Mathematics, Statistics, and Econometrics.

My interests broadly lie in applied machine learning for real-world systems, with a particular focus on reinforcement learning, adversarial ML & robustness, generative modeling, multi-agent systems, game theory, computer vision, and robotics. I’m especially driven to solve real-world problems with machine learning, tackle complex environments, and optimize existing processes to build systems that create a meaningful impact.
