I am a member of technical staff at OpenAI. I did my PhD at UC Berkeley EECS as a member of Berkeley AI Research, where I was fortunate to be advised by Alexei A. Efros and funded by the PD Soros Fellowship. My main interests are in scalable objectives and architectures for self-supervised and unsupervised learning.
Previously, I've spent time as an intern at DeepMind in London and a student researcher at Google Brain.
Before grad school, I was a Research Engineer at
Facebook AI Research in New York
and studied Computer Science at
Princeton (B.S. 2015).
