I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Computer Science at UCLA (2021–2026), co-advised by Kai-Wei Chang and Aditya Grover.

My research focuses on data and algorithms for (a) reasoning in large language and multimodal models, (b) vision-language understanding, and (c) evaluating foundation models.

I actively collaborate with other UCLA faculty, including Nanyun Peng, Jeffrey Brantingham, Hongjing Lu. Additionally, I have worked with Google on multimodal learning (mentors: Yonatan Bitton, Idan Szpektor) and datacomp on data curation (advisor: Ludwig Schimdt)
