Hello! I’m a Research Scientist at ASAPP working on conversational AI. I did my Ph.D. in Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University, where my research was generously supported by Meta AI and CMU Presidential Fellowship.

My research focuses on building autonomous agents proficient in understanding language and performing actions. I’m passionate about developing products that help free up humans from mundane tasks, allowing them to be more creative and make better decisions.

In my current role, I work on building multimodal agent models adept at handling conversational texts and action data streams to augment human agents in customer service.
