Bio
I am a second-year research master student in Symbolic Systems at Stanford University. My research focuses on Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning, with an emphasis on Computational Social Science, Computational Semantics and Pragmatics, Algorithmic Fairness, and Interpretability. I am a member of the Stanford NLP Group, advised by Prof. Chris Potts.
Previously, I received my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan, where I worked with Prof. David Jurgens and Prof. Kevyn Collins-Thompson. Earlier, I attended Shanghai Jiao Tong University, before transferring to Michigan through the dual degree program.
This quarter, I am a CA for CS 224U: Natural Language Understanding.
