About Me

I am a 2nd year MS student at the Language Technologies Institute.

I work in the area of machine translation on the MURI project. Previously I was in the PhD program at Caltech studying String Theory, until I decided my true calling was in Language Technologies. As an undergrad I worked at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center on the BABAR project studying B particles. I got my B.S. degrees in Physics and Mathematics from UC Santa Barbara.
