I am a fourth-year student at UC Berkeley, studying EECS and Applied Math. My research focuses on AI alignment and interpretability, with a particular emphasis on AI safety.

Most recently, I joined xAI as a Member of Technical Staff working on …

I’m also an undergraduate researcher in Berkeley’s Artificial Intelligence Research (BAIR) Lab, working on speech-language models under the supervision of Cheol Jun Cho, Nicholas Lee, and Professor Gopala Anumanchipalli. Additionally, I work with David Wagner’s Research Group on LLM safety under Zhanhao Hu and Professor David Wagner.

Outside of school, I enjoy soccer and spending time with my four cats!
