Hi! I'm a Software Engineer at Motional, working on data mining for autonomous driving using vision-language models (VLMs).

I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from UC Santa Barbara, where I was co-advised by Prof. Pradeep Sen and Prof. Misha Sra. I also hold double B.S. degrees in Computer Science and Applied & Computational Mathematical Sciences (ACMS) from the University of Washington.

My research interests lie in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Human-Computer Interaction, with a focus on multi-modal image analysis and generation (GenAI).
