About Me
I am a second-year graduate student at Rice University, working with Professor Xia Hu. My current research focuses on LLMs prompting and LLMs application to health care. Before that, I obtained my undergraduate degree at Boston College. While at Boston College, I have worked with Prof. Jose Bento on theoretical deep learning and Prof. Stefano Anzellotti on computational neuroscience. I have also interned at Prof. Anima Anandkumar's lab at Caltech as a summer undergraduate research fellow (SURF) working on computer vision for physical reasoning
My general research interest lies in the intersection of human intelligence and artificial intelligence (AI):
How to make AI better for humans to use
How to use AI to better understand human intelligence and use principles from human intelligence to build better AI.
