I'm a rising junior (third-year) at Princeton University studying computer science. I was born in the Bay Area 🌉 but have lived in Kingston, Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 for my entire life.
I focus on better understanding the capabilities and limitations of large foundation models with the Computational Cognitive Science Lab and Princeton Language and Intelligence, where I'm grateful to be advised by Prof. Tom Griffiths. My current research investigates latent threats in human-AI interaction, probing for subtle but societally critical risks around persuasion, fairness, and reliability by drawing on insights from cognitive science to reveal how these systems can both mirror and distort human judgment.
Ultimately, I’m interested in how we can build AI that doesn’t just provide answers, but can continually engage with people, at both the individual and societal level, in socially meaningful ways grounded in trust and adaptability to foster a symbiotic relationship between humans and technology.
