I am a AI research engineer at Bloomberg LP. I have a PhD in Data Science from NYU, where I was the first person ever to defend a dissertation at the Center for Data Science. My research interests include estimation methods for text, transfer learning, and NLP applications to political communication. I hold a BA, summa cum laude, in English literature and political science from Columbia University, and a MA in political science and a MPhil in data science from NYU.
