Hi! I am an Assistant Professor at Duke CS. Before Duke, I led data R&D for computer-use agents at Meta (Llama → MSL), advancing multimodal agent capabilities across the full LLM training lifecycle. I obtained my PhD from CMU LTI where I worked with Graham Neubig.

I run i2x lab turning {i}ntelligence into {x} where x = human e{x}perience and digital agent e{x}ecution at the moment. where we explore AI agents, their environments, and their interactions with humans. đŸ•šī¸ We are recruiting several PhD students in the upcoming cycle. Please apply to Duke CS if you are interested in working with us.
