Hi! I’m Connie. I’m a Master's student in Management Sciences & Engineering (Computational Social Sciences Track) at Stanford, where I have the privilege to be mentored by Professor Omer Reingold and Dr. Lee Cohen.
Currently, my research centers around creating more fair and robust predictors motivated by empirical observations of societal dynamics. I hope to achieve this by intersecting topics from machine learning and algorithmic game theory!
During my undergraduate studies, I extended work in strategic classification to design algorithmic interventions that enhanced both accuracy and fairness in resume-screening systems, accounting for the potential use of LLMs by job applicants.
Previously, I've also built AI-Agent evaluation tools with Runloop AI, and OCR pipelines for the U.S. Census Bureau.

Teaching
I'm a current CA for MATH51: Linear Algebra and Multivariable Calculus as a part of Stanford's ACE Program, which allows me to foster my passion for making mathematics accessible to all!Outside of academics, I also love exploring graphic design! Here are some of my previous works as a designer for Stanford's Division of Literatures, Cultures, & Languages:
