I am a Ph.D. student at Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas. I’m advised by Prof. Vincent Ng and often collaborate with Yufang Hou. My research interests are centered around natural language processing and machine learning, particularly on bridging anaphora resolution, coreference resolution, and applying them to downstream tasks.

Interests: Natural Language Processing, Machine Learning.

Experience

  • ● Research Internship with Patrick Ng at AWS AI , May 2023 - Aug 2023
  • ● Research Internship with Christopher Malon at NEC Laboratories America , May 2022 - Aug 2022
