I study computer science and statistics at Harvard University. I am passionate about AI research and engineering. I love music and language, too.

I am an undergraduate AI researcher at the Kempner Institute working on multi-agent systems. I am currently working with Research Fellow Aaron Walsman on a large-scale evolutionary learning simulation to study the emergence of intelligence in populations of AI agents. Previously, I worked on building mechagogue, a pedagogical reinforcement learning repository with implementations of classical algorithms in JAX. Before that, I worked on multi-agent reasoning with language models under Yilun Du and Sham Kakade.

I interned as a software engineer in Institutional Securities Technology at Morgan Stanley. Before that, I was a Machine Learning Engineer Intern at FADEL and an AI Research Intern at The Slade Lab.

Prune As You Tune: LoRA-Enabled Model Compression

Prune As You Tune (PAYT) interleaves pruning of pre-trained parameters with LoRA fine-tuning updates guided by a custom knowledge distillation loss function. PAYT can achieve up to 50% sparsity with minimal accuracy degradation and lower perplexity on the original task compared to baselines like full fine-tuning and prune-then-fine-tune.
