I am currently working as an Applied Scientist at Amazon, Sponsored Products Org. My work focuses on developing & fine-tuning LLM & Agentic AI models to facilitate better ranking and retrieval in the recommendation system.
I obtained Ph.D. in the Department of Industrial and System Engineering at the University of Washington. I am advised by Dr. Prashanth Rajivan who leads Behavioral Research in Computer Security (BRICS) Lab. Prior to studying at UW, I received my bachelor's degree with a double major in Computer Science and Business at Drew University.
My research interests lie in the intersection of machine learning, human factors, and cybersecurity. Specifically, my work combines machine learning and simulation modeling to develop software to facilitate better human decision-making.
