I am a PhD student studying ML/NLP at Northeastern University, advised by Byron Wallace. My research focuses on evaluating and characterizing linguistic diversity in generative language models.

I received my MSc in Applied Computing at the University of Toronto where I was advised by Frank Rudzicz. During that time, I was awarded the Mitacs Accelerate Fellowship for my work in extending AI into operating rooms. Before that, I received my BSc in Neuroscience at Carleton University.
