About Me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park, advised by Prof. Dana Nau. I am doing research in the Navy Center for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C. under the supervision of Dr. Mak Roberts. My research focus is on automated planning and reinforcement learning.

I earned a M.S. degree in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2023, and a B.S. degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from the University of Toronto in 2020.
