I am a PhD student at the University of Alberta studying Reinforcement Learning with Marlos C. Machado. I also collaborate closely with Martha White . As of September 2026, I am a visiting student at MIT in Pulkit Agrawal's Improbable AI lab. During my PhD, I did internships at Sony AI (with Dustin Morrill), MSR (with John Langford), and Netflix.

Before starting my PhD, I worked at Preferred Networks on open source deep RL and applications of RL to robotics. Prior to that I was a student at the University of Texas at Austin, where I received Bachelor's degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science, and a Master's degree in Computer Science. My Master's Thesis studied reproducibility in deep reinforcement learning, and was supervised by Peter Stone, where I also worked with Scott Niekum.
