I am a second year undergraduate student in the Department of Computer Science at UT Austin, advised by Greg Durrett. I am also a part of the TAUR lab (Text Analysis, Understanding, and Reasoning).
My research focuses on Natural Language Processing and topics in natural language generation and model interpretability. I'm currently exploring new approaches in decoding algorithms for text generation. I also have done some work with using explanations to predict large language model behavior.
Prior to research, I've also had the chance to participate in quite a few hackathons, and I've made a lot of fun and interesting projects.
Feel free to send me an email if you'd like to chat about text generation, interpretability, or NLP in general!
