About / Research / Teaching

I am a second-year PhD student in computer science at the University of Pennsylvania. My advisor is Benjamin Pierce. I am a member of the programming languages group.

Previously, I completed my bachelor’s degree at MIT, where I double majored in mathematics and computer science. I benefited greatly from the undergraduate research program, including and especially as part of Saman Amarasinghe’s compilers group.
