Research and exploration

My work so far has spanned large language models, multimodal AI, and human–computer interaction. But my curiosity doesn’t stop there: I enjoy figuring out how computers and AI work, building something new, and taking on unfamiliar challenges.

Large Language Models

Built LLM agents and RAG systems, and worked on training pipelines and model evaluation.

Multimodal AI

Worked on audio-visual temporal grounding, dataset construction, and multimodal model training and evaluation.

Human–Computer Interaction

Explored interdisciplinary research practices and how researchers’ backgrounds shape their work.
