I’m a PhD student at UC Berkeley with a focus on interpreting and evaluating generative models, often by automating data science on unstructured data.

I am happily advised by Joey Gonzalez in Sky Computing Lab and Trevor Darrell in the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research lab, although you will have to ask them if they are pleased with this arrangement. I have also somehow tricked many other amazing people (Jacob Steinhardt, Ion Stoica, Serena Yeung-Levy, + many more) into working with me. I am also fortunate to be part of Chatbot Arena, a platform for community-driven LLM/VLM evaluations.

Another fun fact is I have Tourette Syndrome, so please excuse any snorting, squeaking, eye rolling, or other out-of-distribution behavior if you meet me IRL. I wrote an essay on the topic if you would like to learn more, or feel free to ask me questions directly.
