I'm currently exploring large-scale LLM simulations because I'm fascinated by understanding how these models actually work under the hood. My background spans both the theoretical foundations and hands-on engineering of generative AI systems, which has been great preparation for this research. I've also spent time thinking about how people interact with AI through thoughtful interface design, since I believe making these tools intuitive and accessible is just as important as the underlying technology.
