I am an Assistant Professor in the 
Department of Statistics and the 
 Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley. In June 2020, I received my Ph. D. from Stanford, where I was advised by 
Andrea Montanari. 
			
			My research is motivated by 
data science and 
AI, and lies at the intersection of 
statistics, 
machine learning, 
information theory, and 
computer science. I often builds on insights that originated within the 
statistical physics literature. My research interests include language models and diffusion models, theory of deep learning, theory of reinforcement learning, high dimensional statistics, quantum algorithms, and uncertainty quantification.
