I'm a geek at heart and a researcher by training. My work lives at the intersection of AI, natural language processing, and social computing — with a particular obsession for understanding how misinformation spreads and how we might stop it. I hold a PhD in Computer Science, and my research blends causal inference, transformer models, state-space models, and multi-agent systems (with a dash of adversarial trolls 🤖).

By day, I build explainable, robust deep learning models — including transformer-based architectures and large language models — to detect propaganda, coordinated manipulation, and misinformation online.

By night (and often still by day), I write code, run experiments, and hack together visualizations to trace how information evolves across the web 🧑‍💻📊.
