About me

I am a Teaching Fellow in the Department of Computer Science. I joined the department in March 2023.

I completed my PhD in 2020 with a focus on applied machine learning. My dissertation was titled Weak Supervision in High-Dimensional, Data-Scarce Prediction Problems. My research has been focused on applied machine learning across different application areas, including bioinformatics, medical imaging and computer vision. I am particularly interested in modeling problems that demand tailored solutions, where generic off-the-shelf methods may prove inadequate due to unique characteristics of data.
