About Me

I am an incoming ECE PhD student in the Audio Information Research Lab at the University of Rochester, where I will be advised by Prof. Zhiyao Duan. My research interests include music generation, music information retrieval, and representation learning.

I completed a double major in Mathematics–Computer Science and Cognitive Science (Machine Learning and Neural Computation) at UC San Diego. I am fortunate to be advised by wonderful mentor Dr. Ke Chen. I am also advised by Prof. Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick, Prof. Shlomo Dubnov, and Prof. Francesca Telese.

I am open to research internships, collaborations, and other inquiries.
