About

I am a PhD candidate in computer science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I work with Andrew McCallum at the Information Extraction and Synthesis Laboratory (IESL) and Hamed Zamani at the Center for Intelligent Information Retrieval (CIIR). I am currently interested in personalization and interactive information retrieval. My broader interests lie in studying and developing tools for information seeking, information production, and information consumption in knowledge work while drawing on methods in natural language processing, information retrieval, and human-computer interaction.
