A bit about me

Hi! My name is Jen and I am a Ph.D. student in machine learning at IST Austria, advised by Dr. Dan Alistarh. I was also fortunate to intern with Weiwei Yang and Janardhan Kulkani at Microsoft Research.

I am primarily interested in the practical and theoretical foundations of applying machine learning and deep learning models in real-life–specifically, questions of efficiency, fairness, bias, and general model interpretability. I study these specifically in the context of edge-device deployment and other constrained-resource environments.

Before starting at IST, I spent some time in industry: I traded equity options on Wall Street, taught math and science to high-school students in San Francisco, helped build a healthcare startup, and built and deployed deep learning models for text recognition at Google LA.

I am a community lead at Cohere for AI, where I host talks on using ML for social good.
