I am an applied scientist at Amazon, working on AI agent, Large Language Model, and Natural Language Processing. Before joining Amazon, I obtained my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science at University of Utah, co-advised by Prof. Ellen Riloff and Prof.Vivek Srikumar. I earned my Master degree in Computer Science at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where I worked with Prof. Dragomir Radev. Before it, I obtained my Bachelor degrees in Maths and Physics at University of Rochester.
