About

I am a Stanford graduate with BS and MS degrees in Computer Science, specializing in Artificial Intelligence. As a researcher at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, I was a key contributor to the widely cited Stanford AI Index Report 2019, led by prominent figures in AI, including Jack Clark, now co-founder of Anthropic and formerly Policy Director at OpenAI.

At Stanford, I served as a Teaching Fellow in Computer Science and represented the university at the Rotman International Trading Competition, where I won first place in the Citadel Securities Algorithmic Trading Case.

Professionally, I worked at a Schonfeld-affiliate quantitative hedge fund managing more than $1 billion in assets, contributing across software engineering, data science, and AI/ML integration. With a Harvard research team, I co-invented an AI system for the automated assessment of Parkinson’s disease.

I am passionate about solving complex problems with technology to create meaningful, scalable impact.
