I am a PhD student in Computer Science at MIT EECS & MIT CSAIL, where I am fortunate to be advised by professor Tommi Jaakkola. My research is focused on probabilistic machine learning and deep learning. I am interested in generative models, empirical approaches to understanding training, robustness, and generalization of deep neural networks.


I received a BSc and MSc in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from the Lomonosov Moscow State University, where I worked in Bayesian Methods Research Group supervised by Dmitry Vetrov.


In the summer of 2021, I completed a research internship at Google Brain, working with Chiyuan Zhang. In the summer of 2023, I completed an internship at Cruise AI Research team supervised by David Hayden.
