hi there! đź‘‹

I am a 4th-year Applied Mathematics undergraduate student at UCLA.

My research interests are in Explainable AI, Generative Models, and LLMs. Currently, I am working on interpretation methods for deep learning models, seeking to shed light on the inner workings of these “black-box” models and making AI more transparent. I am grateful to be advised by Prof. Cho-Jui Hsieh at the UCLA Computational Machine Learning Lab as an undergrad researcher.

Feel free to connect with me and explore opportunities, collaborations, and exciting ventures together!
