I am a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at Dartmouth, advised by Prof. Nikhil Singh. I also frequently collaborate with Prof. Souroush Vosoughi. The overarching aim of my research is to transform complex information into structured representations that can be processed, understood, and acted on.
Currently, I am working on information extraction, building structured representations from unstructured data. These representations serve as intermediate scaffolds that improve retrieval, reasoning, and and decision-making in high-stakes domains. I am also work on Multimodal NLP, where I develop models that can effectively fuse information across various modalities to enhance reasoning capabilities and enable seamless Human-AI interaction. Please check details in my research page.
