About Me

I am a 3rd-year PhD student at the Centre for Artificial Intelligence, University College London, working on Causal Inference and Causal Machine Learning, fortunately supervised by Matt Kusner and Ricardo Silva. So far in my PhD, I have been lucky enough to work extensively with Arthur Gretton on the intersection of Kernel Methods and Causal Inference. From summer 2022 to spring 2023, I was hosted by Dominik Janzing at Amazon Research Tuebingen, and Cheng Zhang at Microsoft Research Cambridge, where I worked on causal abstraction and inference with many measurements, respectively.

I am broadly interested in abstracting causal models, and causal inference under weak observability conditions, specifically methods applicable to social sciences. Right now, I am especially interested in the role of causality in understanding the behaviour of modern deep learning architectures.

Prior to starting my PhD, I earned a master’s degree in Machine Learning from University College London and my undergraduate degree in Mathematics from the University of Cambridge.
