Research


About

I am pursuing a Ph.D. in computer science at UC Santa Barbara, advised by Dr. Tao Yang. Stay tuned for our future research!

I worked at the Soundbendor Lab for four years, where I was advised by Dr. Patrick Donnelly. My work focused on applying machine learning to sound in the time-domain, resulting in two peer-reviewed publications, multiple poster presentations, and winning university awards for my work.
