My research interests involve machine learning/AI and climate change. Besides these interests, I am currently exploring new research avenues. Recently, I interned under Professor Franz Weber, who studies REM sleep in mice. His research expertise primarily focuses on neuroscience and the mechanisms that control REM sleep. Under his guidance, I developed a machine learning algorithm to detect p-waves (peaks) in brain state data during REM sleep. I also interned under Professor Charles Yang, whose research focuses on cognitive science, language acquisition, and natural language processing. Under his guidance, I created a computer science algorithm that mimics how humans learn and form pattern recognition. Besides my research, I am also a CIS 1200 TA and part of an investment club. In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, reading, and getting boba with friends.
