About me

I am a 4th-year Ph.D. Student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD). As a research assistant at UMD, I work with my Ph.D. advisor Dr.Tom Goldstein. My research goal is to develop practical machine learning/deep learning (ML/DL) models that can generalize to real-world data. Relevant research directions include robustness to distribution shift, out-of-distribution generalization, etc. I am interested in studying these problems on different applications, including computer vision and multimodal learning.
