I'm currently a Senior AI Research Manager at Salesforce, leading and managing a team of researchers and engineers to push the boundaries of AI. Our work spans cutting-edge innovations in AI Agents, On-Device AI, Efficient AI, Small Language Models, and LLMs, transforming both research and product.

Previously, I honed my expertise in research and engineering at Intel, IBM Research, MITRE, and the Department of Defense. I hold a Ph.D. in Mathematics with a focus on machine learning theory from the University of Illinois at Chicago, an M.S. in Math from Northwestern, and a B.S. in Math from MIT.

I love laughing, CrossFit, hiking, reading, public speaking, teaching, mentoring, Civ 6, my cat, MIT, and my family.
