About Me

Building Personal ASI at Meta.

I’ve worked on Visual Intelligence at Apple Siri and am a founding researcher at MyShell AI and PIN AI.

Before that, I interned at MIT-IBM Watson working on synthetic data and model training. Some of my projects include Synthetic Data RL, API Pack, AuthentiGPT, and JetMoE.

I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science from MIT and a Bachelor’s degree in Physics with a minor in English from UC Berkeley. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, writing, and hiking.
