I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Cognitive Psychology Lab at Washington University in St Louis, working with Dr. David Balota. My research focuses on evaluating computational models of language such as large-scale associative semantic networks and neural network language models in unconstrained semantic tasks such as free association, sentence prediction, and language games. I use experimental research methods, language modeling, and psychological theory to answer questions about cognition and language. As an undergraduate at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, I majored in Mathematics and Computing. I am interested in understanding how humans acquire and use language, as well as applying my research and skills towards improving language-related products and services.
