I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science advised by Prof. Stephen Bach.

I specialize in addressing weak supervision challenges through innovative methods that navigate limited, indirect, and/or noisy forms of supervision while minimizing human effort. Additionally, I am deeply interested in exploring the advantages of harnessing cutting-edge foundation models (GPTs, Llamas, CLIP etc.) to elevate the efficacy of weak supervision workflows. I also intern at Microsoft Azure AI, where I research novel techniques to enhance multi-modal foundation models for generating more accurate radiology reports.

I am a proud 👐🏟🧀 Badger and I got my BS in CS and Math there in 2019.
