I am currently a PhD candidate in the Computer Science Department at Boston University under Dr. Alex Olshevsky. Prior to this, I studied at Colgate University, where I graduated in 2018 with a double major in computer science and neuroscience. My research interests include signal proccessing and biologically plausible machine learning. My current research interest is Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning.

Work

Research Interests:

My recent research experiences have been focused heavily on biologically plausible machine learning and creating an agent to learn a multi-agent task with simultaneous moves through self-play.
