I am a PhD student in the MIT Database Group where I work on novel systems to support machine learning and data visualization. Most recently, I have worked on ModelDB, a system to manage ML models, and SeeDB, a system to provide visualization recommendations. My advisor is Sam Madden.

In the past, I've worked/interned at Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Twitter. I am a recipient of the Facebook PhD Fellowship (2016) and the Google Anita Borg Scholarship (2013).
