Hi.

[2025: Actively seeking opportunities in industry positions.]

I'm a PhD student studying Computer Science at University of Chicago, advised by Sanjay Krishnan as a part of the ChiData Group. I did my undergraduate at Princeton University, and am originally from Ottawa, Canada (eh).

I am interested in creating data systems to enable emerging machine learning applications. In my research, I have worked on problems in Jupyter Notebook tracking (Github), data lineage and provenance (Github), and machine learning error classification (Github).

I'm currently working on the TableVault project. This project aims to answer: what are the system needs for agents and models to interact with complex external data resources?
