I am a first second third fourth year PhD student at the Language Technologies Institute of School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. I am very fortunate to be advised by Louis-Philippe Morency and Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick. I am a member of MultiComp Lab and Berg Lab. Previously, I worked with Ed Hovy and Teruko Mitamura. Before CMU, I was a member of Deniz Yuret’s AI-LAB. I am interested in language grounding.
