I am a 3rd year PhD student in computer science at the University of Chicago. I am fortunate to be advised by Dr. Allyson Ettinger

I also work closely with Dr. Kanishka Misra.

My research focus is on data-efficiency for learning i.e. selecting the best small subsets of data for training which not only maintains accuracy but also covers data diversity. I also work on how new concepts are encoded in LLM during their training.

Prior to joining UChicago, I was a software engineer in the industry, focusing on Distributed File Systems.

I did my Masters in Computer Science from IIT, Kanpur.
