About Me

I am a second year PhD student at Northwestern University in the Computer Science Theory group, advised by Edith Elkind.

I am interested in computational social choice, with a focus on multiwinner voting and participatory budgeting.

Before joining Northwestern, I received my BS in Computer Science and Mathematics at Northeastern University. There I worked on scheduling algorithms under the mentorship of Rajmohan Rajaraman.
