I am a fourth year Ph.D. candidate in the Computer Science department at Tufts University. I work at the Multimodal Learning, Interaction, and Perception Lab led by Associate Professor Jivko Sinapov. I've also worked as a Research Assistant at the Tufts Center for Engineering Education and Outreach.

My research integrates artificial intelligence, human-centered design and educational robotics. My current research focuses on human in the loop reinforcement learning and exploring how different modalities of human feedback can be used to improve reinforcement learning agent performance. 

During my undergraduate education at Yale University, I worked with Dr. Kim Blenman in the Blenman Innovation Group and with Professor Julian Jara-Ettinger in the Computational Social Cognition Lab. I have also been fortunate enough to intern as an AI/ML engineer in the Lockheed Martin AI Center.
