Hi there! Thanks for stopping by :)
I am a researcher with interests in computer vision (CV) and LLMs. I obtained M.S. in Electrical & Computer Engineering and M.S. in Data Science at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. During my studies, I had a wonderful internship opportunity under Adobe Research, where I was mainly mentored by Siavash Khodadadeh and Kevin Duarte and worked on diffusion model efficiency. I also had research experiences on 3D object detection at Isuzu Motors.
Prior to my master journey, I received my B.S. from National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan, where my research lies in the field of reinforcement learning.
Currently, I am a Machine Learning Engineer @ Google. I work on on-device Gemini Nano model eval.
