I am a fourth-year undergrad studying computer science at
the University of Southern California, where I am part of
the USC Natural Language Processing Group.
I am currently advised by Robin Jia and
Swabha Swayamdipta on making models more controllably learn from undesired data like hate speech. I am grateful that my research has/is being supported by the USC Provost and CURVE Research Fellowships.
I'm generally interested in investigating data and architectural design choices during model pre-training that can make models safe and reliable.
Before NLP, I dabbled with a little bit of computational biology research.
