📖 Bio

I am an incoming Ph.D. candidate at Aalto University, focusing on Trustworthy AI under the supervision of Asst. Prof. Sebastian Szyller. I am interested in understanding how AI models work and in developing trustworthy AI systems. Before, I received my M.Sc. from DTU, where I worked on explainable AI and fairness under the supervision of Asst. Prof. Lei You.

As I am still familiarizing myself with the broader landscape of Trustworthy AI, I am currently in an exploration phase and hope to identify a direction where I can pursue meaningful questions and contribute valuable research.
