Hi! I’m Connie. I’m a first year PhD student at the University of Maryland, advised by Han Shao.

Previously, I graduated with a M.S. in Management Sciences and Engineering from Stanford, where I was fortunate to be advised by Omer Reingold and Lee Cohen.

My research interests are in machine learning theory and algorithmic game theory. I'm especially interested in applying these fields to the foundations of trustworthy machine learning and AI alignment.
