I am a third-year PhD student in the CS theory group at the University of Colorado, Boulder, co-advised by Bo Waggoner and Rafael Frongillo. I hold undergraduate degrees in Computer Science and Mathematics from the University of Maryland, and before grad school I was a software engineer for Amazon Web Services.

My research interests lie at the intersection of algorithmic game theory and theoretical machine learning, especially related to the aggregation of information and the incentive structures that arise. In particular, I am studying how to make collective decisions by combining preferences and predictions. I am also thinking about how people strategize in different types of forecasting competitions.
