About Me
I am a Ph.D. Student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Texas at Austin co-advised by Drs. Aryan Mokhtari and Sanjay Shakkottai. My current research focuses on efficient model fine-tuning and unlearning.
I received my B.S.E in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2023.
