My cv.
I am currently located in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I work on search and recommendation algorithms, text modeling, big data, and other machine-learning related projects.
From March - July 2010, I was a postdoc/visiting professor at U Pompeu
Fabra, working with Hector
Geffner.
Until February 2010, I worked at State Street Associates in
Cambridge, MA.
In Spring 2008, I was a postdoctoral researcher in
CSAIL (the former AI Lab) at MIT.
I finished my PhD at MIT in December 2007, where
I worked with Leslie
Kaelbling in the LIS
lab on planning in stochastic, relational domains.
In 2003, I received my MS from MIT.
I did my
undergraduate work at Michigan State University, where I worked
with Sridhar Mahadevan
on hierarchical reinforcement
learning.
