About Me
My research interest is developing advanced dialogue systems, including both open-domain and task-oriented dialogue systems. I'm also interested in the fields of information retrieval and optimizing interactive systems by learning from users. (CV Link)
I defended my Ph.D. thesis at University of Amsterdam in 2020. You can find my Ph.D. thesis here.
I joined Amazon Alexa AI in Seattle as an Applied Scientist in the summer of 2021.
