I am a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University supervised by Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick and Graham Neubig. I also collaborate with Kevin Gimpel at the Toyota Technological Institute at the University of Chicago. Previously, I did my MS with Dan Roth, currently at the University of Pennsylvania.
My interests lie in machine learning, learning theory, optimization, natural language processing and computer vision. Currently my research has focused on machine learning and natural language processing.
