Former MS Student — Stanford ICME · Computational & Mathematical Engineering

I completed my ICME master's at Stanford in June 2026. At Stanford, I conducted research on world models in Professor Gordon Wetzstein's lab and served as a teaching assistant for Machine Learning (CS229).

Prior to Stanford, I spent six months at Harvard with Dr. Mengyu Wang on image segmentation and vision-language models for medical imaging fairness, and another six months with Dr. Craig Levin applying latent diffusion models to PET image reconstruction.

More recently, I have been working on CoverAgent, a targeted behavioral evaluation harness designed to red-team multi-agent systems for collusion. It has produced some results I find especially interesting—read more on my blog.
