Bio

I am an second-year electrical engineering PhD student at Stanford University and NSF Graduate Research Fellow, advised by Dr. Ehsan Adeli. I am broadly interested in applied ML, and am currently working on foundation models for resting-state functional MRI.

Previously, I studied electrical engineering at Cal Poly SLO and was the youngest engineering graduate in the school's history. I then worked as a post-baccalaureate researcher in Dr. Kim Butts Pauly's lab here at Stanford, where I applied machine learning to transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation, a non-invasive therapeutic modality with the potential to cure neurological diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's, and even addiction. My primary focus during this time was using ML to improve therapy planning accuracy and efficiency.

Outside of academia, I enjoy playing the piano, badminton, working out, and cooking! I am also the co-founder and co-president of the Stanford Piano Society.
