bio
I’m currently a Computer Science PhD candidate at Duke University, working under Jun Yang and Bhuwan Dhingra. My research is focused on vaccine misinformation and high-subjectivity tasks in NLP. I’m passionate about global-scale issues and have vast experience working in many different cultures.
I am a fourth-year Computer Science PhD candidate at Duke University. My research is focused on vaccine misinformation and high-difficulty, high-subjectivity tasks in NLP. I’m co-advised by Jun Yang and Bhuwan Dhingra.
I am co-president of DACC, a consulting organization that provides pro-bono technical and management consulting for businesses across the United States. I am also active in the grad-student government and negotiated the recent PhD stipend increase at Duke University as part of the PhD Stipend Task Force.

I am co-president of DACC, a consulting organization that provides pro-bono technical and management consulting for businesses of all sizes (from startups to S&P 1000) and all industries (from biotech to retail). I oversee approximately 25 8-10 week engagements each year. I am also active in the grad-student government. I negotiated the recent PhD stipend increase of 15% at Duke University as part of the PhD Stipend Task Force, and sit on various committees and hiring boards at Duke.
I graduated Summa Cum Laude in three years from Northeastern University (a five-year school) with a BS in Computer Engineering. In 2020 I was inducted into the Huntington 100 group, an annual list of the top 100 most influential students from the University’s 18,000+ students. I also received the PEAK Research fellowship for my 6-month full-time work under Renée J. Miller, working on the schema inference problem for open data.
During my time at Northeastern, I sat as chair of the Title IX Board, overseeing student misconduct cases regarding issues ranging from sexual assault to stalking. I was also a full voting member of SVF, an investment fund managing ~$215,000 of Northeastern’s Endowment, and sat on various advisory boards that served the university.
Much of my other relevant experience pertains to cultural agility. I have worked on projects and full-time jobs in Southeast Asia, Africa, and North America; lived in Europe, Southeast Asia, and the US; studied in North America, South America, and Southeast Asia; as well as completed various international training programs in 7 countries. I speak fluent English and Swedish, and I can converse at a limited proficiency in Spanish and Indonesian.
