I’m a first-year PhD student at Mila/McGill in the Reasoning and Learning Lab, where I’m fortunate to be supervised by Siva Reddy and Rishabh Agarwal. I previously completed my Master’s supervised by Siamak Ravanbakhsh, and my undergraduate degree in Joint Honours Physics and Computer Science @ McGill. My research interests lie broadly in reasoning, post-training, and representation learning. I am currently a Student Researcher at Google, where I work on RL training and self-improvement, and was previously a Visiting Researcher at ServiceNow AI Research, where I worked on agents. You can find my publications on Google Scholar.

stuff i enjoy (it’s raining links): justice, thinking basketball, 3b1b, civilisation, death, euler, fry and laurie, yes minister, every frame a painting, gateless gate, mathpages, elucidations, american scholar, wandering aengus, nightingale.
