I'm a researcher, engineer, and part-time soccer player passionate about advancing speech signal processing.
As the CEO and Founder of Whissle, we focus on real-time methods for modular and cost-agnostic multi-modal understanding. I earned my PhD from USC under Shrikanth Narayanan and have contributed to research at AT&T Bell Labs’ Interactions LLC.
My work spans NLP, acoustic-prosodic cues, and speech-based methods, and I enjoy mentoring students on AI/ML projects through initiatives like Google Summer of Code and RedHenLab.
