I am a PhD student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) within the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University. I am fortunate to be advised by Steven Wu and Ken Holstein.

My work examines the safety and validity of data-driven algorithms deployed in high stakes decision-making settings. I develop algorithmic methods and evaluation tools to help practitoners assess the feasability of model deployments given real-world complexities. I adopt an interdisciplinary perspective, leveraging methods from HCI, machine learning, and statistics. My work is generously supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.

Previously, I did my Master’s in Computer Science at Cambridge. I also studied Computer Science and Psychology at the University of Missouri, where I co-founded TigerAware, a mobile-based research platform.
