I am currently a Member of Technical Staff at Flourish Labs based in NYC 🥯🗽.

Most recently, I was a Research Scientist at Databricks Research. I did my PhD in the Center for Theoretical Neuroscience at Columbia University. After my PhD, I was a Research Scientist at MosaicML, which got acquired by Databricks in July 2023.

I look forward to the day when we start using everything we’ve learned about LLMs to understand the human brain. For now though, I think there is a lot of exciting research at the forefront of LLM pretraining and post training.
