Bio
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science and Engineering at The Ohio State University and currently serve as a Specialist, Databricks Engineer at Nationwide Headquarters.
My research focuses on trustworthy and context-aware Large Language Models (LLMs), knowledge graphs, scalable AI systems, and human-centered machine learning. I am particularly interested in building enterprise AI systems that improve interpretability, trustworthiness, and human-AI collaboration.
I hold a Master of Science degree in Computer Science from Clemson University and a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from Winston-Salem State University.
