Research Assistant
  • MIT Center for Constructive Communication

I am a Ph.D. student at MIT working on natural language processing (NLP), human-computer interaction (HCI), and computational social science (CSS), supervised by Professor Deb Roy.  My research goal is to understand and bridge human communication with AI.

Research Interests

I am broadly interested in the following research directions: 

  • Socially-aware NLP: incorporate social factors into language understanding and generation
  • Human-centered AI: design human-centered AI systems for human-AI collaboration
  • AI for social sciences: apply AI to facilitate research in social and cognitives sciences

A brief bio: 

I completed my undergrad at Emory University in Computer Science and Linguistics and obtained my M.S. degree in Symbolic Systems at Stanford University. I worked at Stanford NLP Group, Stanford Language and Cognition Lab, and Emory NLP Lab. I have also worked as an intern at AI2, Google, IBM, Apple, Educational Testing Service (ETS), and CMU.
