I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Stanford University. My research lies at the intersection of machine learning, natural language processing, and computational social science. I develop methods that help us understand and generate human language in ways that are reliable, fair, and interpretable.
Before joining Stanford, I completed my PhD at Carnegie Mellon University advised by Prof. Noah Smith. I also spent time as a visiting researcher at Google DeepMind and as a postdoc at MIT CSAIL. My thesis on structured prediction for semantic parsing received the ACL Best Dissertation Award.
I am looking for motivated PhD students interested in NLP, ML, and AI safety. If you are interested in working with me, please apply to the Stanford CS PhD program and mention my name in your application.
