My research spans NLP, LLMs, distributed systems, and cybersecurity. At AWS GenAI, I work on LLM inference optimization and responsible AI guardrails. Previously, I conducted clinical NLP research at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, contributing to knowledge graph retrieval systems and clinical text summarization (EMNLP 2025). During my PhD at Purdue, I designed decentralized ML systems for NASA spacecraft networks, built distributed learning on embedded devices, and developed blockchain-powered computing systems (2 US patents). I have published 15+ papers in IEEE, AAAI, EMNLP, and other top venues.
