97    <h3>About</h3>
98    <p>
99      I recently graduated from the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences at <strong>New York University</strong>, where I completed the accelerated Bachelor's Master's track with a concentration in AI. I am now a Member of Technical Staff at <strong>Cohere</strong>, where I work on agentic and LLM evaluations.
100    </p>
101    <p>
102      I am very fortunate to be advised by Professor <a href="https://eunsol.github.io/">Eunsol Choi</a>. I am a member of the <a href="https://wp.nyu.edu/ml2/">ML2 Lab</a>, affiliated with <a href="https://wp.nyu.edu/cilvr/">CILVR@NYU</a>. My interests include machine learning and natural language processing.
103      Currently, I am researching agentic search and retrieval systems.
