About Me

Hey there! Welcome to my website. I'm a student at the University of Chicago studying computer science and philosophy. Currently, I am on leave to work trial at Redwood Research. Previously, I organized for UChicago's AI safety group and completed XLab's Summer Research Fellowship, mentored by Eric Gan.

I'm interested in AI safety — model (mis)alignment, control, governance — as well as art history, Latin, and numbered icosahedrons.

If you have a cool idea or just want to chat, reach out or schedule a meeting.

Feedback

I believe one of the best ways to grow is to surround yourself with people who can catch you in your blindspots. If you notice something I could improve, I'd love to hear it. If you'd prefer to share feedback anonymously, you can do so here.
