About

I am a PhD student at MIT EECS advised by Aleksander Mądry and funded by a Google PhD Fellowship. I am most interested in understanding the role of data in machine learning.

I went to MIT for undergrad and grew up in Massachusetts. Outside of research, I contribute to open source and play pickup soccer.
