I am an assistant professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. Previously, I was a postdoc at Carnegie Mellon University working with Prof. Pradeep Ravikumar. I completed my Computer Science PhD at The University of Texas at Austin in 2017 advised by Prof. Inderjit Dhillon and Prof. Pradeep Ravikumar. I was awarded the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship (NSF GRFP). My research interests are in machine learning focused on the fundamentals of generative probabilistic models and explainable AI.
