Hi! Welcome to my website. I started as a PhD student in the Industrial Engineering and Operations Research department of Columbia University. I work with the fabulous Shipra Agrawal. I am excited by research questions under the broad umbrella of reinforcement learning and strategic behavior.

In 2021, I graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with a Master in Computer Science, where I was part of Nan Jiang’s RL theory group.
