About me

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science from Virginia Tech. I am part of the DLRL lab . My advisor is Dr. Edward A. Fox . My research mainly focuses on natural language processing, data mining and digital libraries.

My research speicifically focusses on bringing computational access to book-length documents such as electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs) by providing more granualar level access to the readers. Chapter-level summaries and classification labels can help readers and stakeholders find the portion of interest more efficiently.

I am on the job market and planning on graduating May 2024.
