Biography

I am a Ph.D. student in Economics at the University of Pennsylvania and a research assistant at Wharton Research Data Services.

Previously, I was a Data Science/Machine Learning intern at Snowflake. I worked on building RAG-based LLM chatbots with enriched multimedia output.

I am looking for internship and full-time opportunities (RS, AS, or DS roles) with a flexible start date. I am also in the team match process for Google’s SWE 2025 summer internship. Please feel free to reach out if you are hiring!
