I am a senior studying Mathematics–Computer Science at UC San Diego. I enjoy developing and learing about progress in machine learning, whether it be research, engineering, or infrastructure. My primary research interests lie in AI safety and model robustness, specifically on adversarial attacks/defenses and modeling under distribution shifts.

Selected Experience

Professional

Amazon (June 2025 – September 2025)

Software Development Engineering Intern

  • Developed a network traffic prediction system and service dependency visualizer to anticipate user traffic during peak events, allowing engineers to scale services seamlessly and reducing a previously manual effort by 80% (20 days to 2).

Research

Systems Energy and Efficiency Lab @ UCSD (Oct 2023 – Present)

Machine Learning Research Intern

  • First author in an IEEE-IoTJ'25 journal publication (under review) proposing a continual learning framework for improving classifier performance in real-world data streaming.
  • First author in an AAAI'25 AICS research paper proposing a novel masked autoencoder architecture and probabilistic mappings for anomaly detection in network intrusion scenarios.
  • Co-author in an IEEE-SafeThings'25 paper on an adversarial defense selection algorithm for network intrusion.
  • Second author in an IEEE-CSR'24 publication evaluating adversarial attack impacts on intrusion detection models.

Scripps Institution of Oceanography (Sept 2023 – June 2024)

Natural Language Processing Research Intern

  • Applied statistical natural language processing and fine-tuned large language models on climate corpora to build document classifiers for regional climate trends.

Activities

Code in Place @ Stanford University (April 2023 – June 2023)

Teaching Assistant

  • Volunteered to lead weekly sections for Stanford's CS106A, hosting a cohort of 15 students to learn Python programming fundamentals.

Triton NeuroTech

Machine Learning Engineer

  • Developed and validated an LSTM model for the Prosthetics team, achieving over 90% accuracy in classifying EMG time-series signals into finger movement commands for a prosthetic arm.
