About Me
Welcome!
I am an Applied Scientist at AWS. I obtained my PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Insup Lee and Prof. Oleg Sokolsky. I am broadly interested in:
- Agentic system orchestration
- Robust agent evaluation
- AI Security & AI for security
- Anomaly detection
- Cyber-physical systems
