My research centers on language models and AI alignment. I am particularly interested in how model design and training choices shape capabilities and behavior, and in developing models that are more capable, reliable, and aligned.
I hold a B.S. in Computer Science, with minors in Mathematics and Physics, from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke, where I worked with Dr. Prashanth BusiReddyGari and Dr. Shaohu Zhang. I was an AI Safety Research Fellow at Algoverse. I completed the AI Safety Fundamentals Fellowship (AISF) with MIT AI Alignment (MAIA) and BlueDot Impact's Technical AI Safety course. I am currently participating in BlueDot Impact's Technical AI Safety Project Sprint, where I am working on language-model alignment during pretraining.
