I am an AI/ML researcher at Microsoft Research (MSR) in Redmond. Currently, I am focussed on developing state-of-the-art large language models. Related to this goal, I am also interested in methods for evaluating and aligning AI technologies for specific tasks or use cases. In the recent past I have worked more broadly on understanding the principles of deep learning, particularly through the lens of optimization algorithms and their implicit regularization. Before joining MSR, I was a Research Assistant Professor at Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago. I received my PhD in ECE from The University of Texas at Austin.
I have had the priviledge of working with some awesome interns in our group.
