Hello!
I am a Phd Candidate in computer science advised by
Professor Avrim Blum
at the Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago.
I am most interested in the theory and practice of machine learning, with secondary interests in game theory and online algorithms.
Some of my work includes considering group fairness and biased data FORC 2020,
fairness and screening problems FAACT 2022,
strategic classification ICML 2023, adversarial robustness (under review) , and fair-ERM with malicious noise (under review).
I am pleased to announce I will be interning at J.P. Morgan AI (NYC) during Summer 2023, working with the excellent Margarita Boyarskaya!
I have served as a reviewer for ITCS, FAACT, and ICALP.
Generally speaking, I am most interested in formally modelling problems in order to pin down complex behavior and ensure reliable and beneficial systems.
My email is my first name at ttic dot edu.
I studied mathematics in undergrad at UCLA and benefited substantially from the Applied Math REU there.
