I am a second-year PhD working with Prof. Aurelien Lucchi in the Optimization of Machine Learning Systems (OMLS) Group.

My current interests lie in variational optimization, Bayesian inference, and how one can understand the distributional spaces in which deep learning hyperparameters reside, to come up with well-understood and robust algorithms.
