I am a computer scientist. My primary interests are machine learning and computer vision, with an emphasis on creating machine learning systems that enable scientific discoveries.
Currently, I am a Research Scientist at GenBio AI. I am working on large AI models for biology, particularly at the cell and tissue level.
Previously, I was a Research Scientist at Altos Labs under Peter Kharchenko. At Altos, I developed machine learning systems for discovering biologically significant cell and tissue states from experimental data (e.g. scRNA-seq, spatial transcriptomics, histology, IF, IHC). I earned my Ph.D. in Pietro Perona’s computer vision group at Caltech, supported by an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. I spent two years of my Ph.D. working with Serge Belongie at Google Research and completed summer internships at Microsoft Research and the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. Before that, I received a B.S.E. from Duke University with a double major in electrical engineering and mathematics. I am grateful to my passionate public school teachers in Utah (Grantsville, Sandy, Salt Lake City), Nebraska (Omaha), and Texas (San Antonio).
