My research falls in the intersection of AI, NLP and social psychology. Specifically, how can AI deepen our understanding of human interactions and the social world around us. I’m interested in developing “social-machines” that demonstrate social reasoning skills and can assist in explaining social phenomena. My current research aim is to develop computational models that can explain and predict processes underpinning human behavior.
I am currently pursuing part-time PhD at the Oxford Internet Institute working with Dr Scott A. Hale. During my masters at University of Maryland, College Park I worked with jordan boyd-graber. More details in my resume.
Outside of research
In the last 10 years, I worked on various NLP problems including summarization, representation learning, Large Language Models fine-tuning and evaluation. I have lead several projects and worked with founders on building and managing AI strategies and teams.
