I’m a PhD student at MIT CSAIL studying visual computing systems with Jonathan Ragan-Kelley and Josh Tenenbaum. Previously, I was an undergrad at Stanford University studying computer science, physics, and English literature — islands I hold to be the lost children of one great continent. My research is generously supported by a Hertz Foundation Fellowship, the Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowship for New Americans, and the National Science Foundation’s GRFP [press]. If you are currently applying to graduate school, I encourage you to consider these wonderful programs. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have questions. How would Wordle work in languages with different kinds of scripts? [press] Are there other illusions like "The Dress" out there? If neuron activations are indeed like toilet flushes (a common analogy), can we implement deep neural networks using plumbing components?

Previously, I was an undergraduate at Stanford University, where I studied computer science, physics, and English literature - islands I held to be the lost children of one great continent. I study the computational basis of how our minds understand other minds, what we sometimes call our "theory of mind." My work endeavors to reverse-engineer the metacognitive concepts
