The WiDS Cambridge Datathon Workshop is an annual workshop in addition to the main event, WiDS Cambridge Conference. The workshop aims to provide mentorship and training for those interested in participating in the WiDS Datathon Challenge, and, more generally, anyone with a strong interest in data science.

What I Do: I'm a fourth-year Ph.D. student in the Machine Learning Group at MIT CSAIL, advised by Prof. Stefanie Jegelka and Prof. Phillip Isola.
My research interests broadly lie in multimodal representation learning, robustness, and out-of-distribution generalization. Recently, I have been thinking about the role of data from diverse modalities and its implications for unified architectures.
What I Love About Data Science: I value data science for its ability to rigorously quantify complex systems and uncover patterns that inform real-world decisions. It provides a framework for moving beyond intuitions, enabling interventions that are both measurable and impactful.
What Else: I love playing sports, especially baseball and squash, traveling, and painting. In my free time, I can be found trying different cuisines or exploring the city!

What I do: I am a 3rd-year Ph.D. student in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at MIT, advised by Tamara Broderick.
My past work has spanned robust AI evaluation, data attribution, and multi-turn interactions in LLMs. Recently, I’ve been thinking about problems in context management and persistent memory for LLMs.
What I love about data science: I am fascinated by how data-driven methods allow us to probe complex systems (both technical and social). These revealing patterns challenge intuition and reshape how we think about intelligence. What energizes me about research is the opportunity to uncover unexpected results that challenge our assumptions and transform them into sound understanding. I am motivated by the broader goal of creating AI systems that strengthen human creativity while preserving human agency.
What Else: I enjoy dance, meditation, volleyball, and traveling!
