🎯 I am an incoming Postdoctoral Researcher at Purdue University working with Dr. Jianing Li. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Vermont under the supervision of Dr. Safwan Wshah in 2026. Prior to my Ph.D., I received an M.Sc. from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 2020, and a B.Sc. from Michigan State University in 2017.
📚 My current research focuses on the intersection of artificial intelligence and drug discovery, with a specific emphasis on de novo antimicrobial peptide design. In parallel, I maintain a strong research interest in computer vision and generative models. This includes the exploration of visual geo-localization, diffusion models, diffusion-based Large Language Models (dLLMs), and remote sensing applications. Always open to new collaborations! Feel free to shoot me an email, if you are interested. 😃
