About Me

I am a 3rd year Computer Science PhD student at UIUC advised by Lingming Zhang. My research interest lies in the intersection of Machine Learning and Software Engineering.

Before coming to UIUC, I completed my undergrad at the University of Toronto where I was fortunate to work with Natalie Enright Jerger, David Lie, Nicolas Papernot and Shurui Zhou.
