I am a Senior Applied Scientist at Microsoft Office of Applied Research, where I drive research on improving Copilot reasoning for complex intent, through learning from interaction, synthetic data generation, and UX innovation. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science at University of Southern California, where I work in the USC-NLP Group. My research interests are: large language models (LLM) reasoning, communicating agents, and human-AI symbiosis.
Previously, I received undergraduate degree in Mathematics of Computation from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). I've also done research at Google Deepmind (Gemini), Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2), and Amazon Alexa AI. My work has been featured in The Register, Science Daily, VentureBeat, Tech Xplore, etc.
We are on lookout for exceptional applied science talents! If you have passion to improve LLM systems from interaction and excited about applied research impacts, feel free to drop me a line :)
