I work on a range of problems, from high-performance machine learning pipelines and synthetic data generation to language model reliability and evaluation. In the long term, I am especially interested in pursuing research at the intersection of machine learning and statistics.

I'm a CS + Applied Statistics student at Purdue, focused on machine learning and intelligence in Computer Science, and probability and applied regression in Applied Statistics. Previously, I spent the spring at Rolls-Royce working on a synthetic data framework for turbofan telemetry that lets PHM researchers train models without ITAR-restricted engine data. I built a GPU-accelerated conditional diffusion pipeline with transformer-based masked denoisers and inpainting-style sampling, and I also experimented with LoRA fine-tuning and synthetic data evaluation using MMD and domain-classifier metrics. Lately, I have been exploring LLM reliability evaluation at AbbVie.

Before that, I led the algorithms side of Purdue Robomasters and competed in math and programming competitions, including the Putnam (Top 1000), AIME (2x qualifier), and USACO (Gold Division).
