Biography

I am currently a brain resident at Google.

I completed undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto in computer science, mathematics and statistics. Broadly speaking, I am interested in statistics and optimization, with a focus on methods that may benefit machine learning and deep learning. In particular, I am most experienced with applied and theoretical aspects of Monte Carlo methods. I am also familiar with numerical methods for ODEs, SDEs, and PDEs.

During undergrad, I worked on research projects under profs. David Duvenaud, Murat Erdogdu, and Roger Grosse.

Note: I am seeking PhD positions, despite almost being spoiled by the benefits of doing research in a company :)
