About me

Hi! I’m a fourth-year Ph.D. candidate in Psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), advised by Dr. Hongjing Lu. I am also pursing a Master’s degree in Statistics. My research focuses on how humans represent and understand social interactions, combining computational modeling with cognitive science. Additionally, I interned with the Netflix video algorithm team.

I earned dual B.S. degrees in Statistics and Cognitive Science (with a Specialization in Computing) from UCLA in 2022. During my undergraduate years, I worked with both Dr. Hongjing Lu and Dr. Tao Gao.
