I'm a first year PhD student at Washington University in St. Louis studying Computer Science.

I have an BS/MS in Computer Engineering from Washington University, and during that time I worked on several machine learning for health projects under the supervision of Chenyang Lu and Thomas Kannampallil, including my master's thesis. I also have a BA in Computer Science from Pacific Lutheran University.

Research

I'm interested in developing new machine learning tools for medicine and healthcare. Most of my past work has involved tabular and natural language data.
