I love teaching and was actively involved in the education community at Berkeley for a while! Here are some classes I've been involved with:

• Spring 2022: CS 189/289A, Machine Learning (Head TA)
• Fall 2021: CS 285, Deep Reinforcement Learning (TA)
• Spring 2021: CS 189/289A, Machine Learning (Head TA)
• Spring 2020: CS 189/289A, Machine Learning (20-hr TA)
• Spring 2019: CS 61A, Intro to Programming (TA)
• Fall 2018: CS 61A, Intro to Programming (TA)
• Summer 2018: CS 61A, Intro to Programming (Head of Projects)

• August 2022 - present: Software Engineering @ Applied Intuition
• Summer 2021: Perception/ML Infra @ Waymo
• Summer 2020: ML research @ Robotic AI & Learning Lab (RAIL)
• Summer 2019: Backend/payments infra @ Stripe

I'm interested in algorithms to make reinforcement learning feasible in real-world domains such as robotics, autonomous vehicles, and medicine. My current focus is on developing better techniques for uncertainty estimation on deep neural networks, which can be used to improve exploration, goal-driven RL, and offline RL.
