I am an Applied Scientist based in Seattle, working on democratizing machine learning through automated systems. My research interests span Reinforcement Learning, Agentic Coding, and LLM Post-training.
My primary research focuses on LLM post-training, specifically building automation systems to improve
Reinforcement Learning performance. I also develop frameworks for general end-to-end machine learning automation,
such as AutoGluon Assistant (aka MLZero)
.
Also, I served as a core developer for AutoGluon Multimodal from release 0.7 to 1.5
.
