ML Scientist, Apple

My research focuses on new methods for reasoning from data, human-computer collaboration, and improving evaluation of AI systems. Previously, I worked on those same things plus question answering, language grounding, and pragmatic meaning representation.

I completed my PhD in Computational Linguistics at the University of Washington in 2019, advised by Hanna Hajishirzi and Gina-Anne Levow. Before Apple I was a postdoctoral researcher with Noah Smith at UW CSE, an Applied Scientist at Amazon, and a Research Scientist at S&P Global Kensho.
