Bio

I am a linguist specializing in model evaluation, data operations, product research, and speech.

As a Linguistic Engineer at Meta Reality Labs, I lead ASR metrics and insights for the AI glasses, designing evaluation frameworks and annotation pipelines to pinpoint improvement areas across models for all languages and locales.

At Grammarly, I developed linguistic product features and novel model evaluation methodologies and drove large-scale training data collection for AI-powered writing features. I even have a patent!

I have a Ph.D. in Linguistics from UC Berkeley, where I conducted experimental research on spoken language processing and bilingualism.

Interests
