Hello there!

I am a PhD student at University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. I’m currently working with Dr. Dilek Hakkani-Tur and Dr. Gokhan Tur.

Research interests: Currently, I’m interested in data efficiency in NLP - from uncertainty estimation to active learning and subset/coreset selection. I’ve worked in LLM-based agents, reinforcement learning, and graph machine learning.

Highlights:

• I’m heading to Miami for EMNLP 2024 - email/DM me on Twitter to meet up :)
• TreeInstruct was accepted at EMNLP 2024!
• Interned at IBM Research as a Research Scientist Intern in Summer 2024
• Graduated from MSCS at UIUC in May 2024 (advised by Dr. Hanghang Tong)
• Graudated from BS CS at Purdue in May 2022
