Hi! I’m a Member of Engineering (RL) at Poolside. Prior to this, I have worked at Amazon, Microsoft, and other companies, on research in reinforcement learning (RL), and completed my Ph.D. at Oregon State Universityunder the supervision of Prof. Alan Fern. My research interests span a wide range of RL topics, including explainability of RL agents, model-based RL, planning, offline RL, hierarchical RL, safety of agents, multi-agent RL, and decision/inference-time planning for robotic control and LLM reasoning. Currently, I focus on applying RL and reasoning techniques to improve code generation in large language models (LLMs). If you’re interested in my work or would like to collaborate, feel free to reach out.
