I'm a 4th year PhD student in Information Retrieval at
UMass Amherst, supervised by
Hamed Zamani.
My research focuses on
conversational search and
proactive language models.
I'm also the founder of
Naget, building the next generation of
personal instruction-based search.
I've gained industry experience through internships at
Amazon (generative ranking),
Netflix (conversational search), and
Adobe (multi-step dense retrieval),
along with prior roles at
Ro5 (biomedical knowledge graphs),
NUS (fact-checking systems),
Plural AI (semantic search for finance), and
Donaco (contextual recommendations).
My goal is to advance
multimodal content organization & discovery by addressing foundation model limitations in efficiency, robustness, and resource constraints.
Interested in collaborating on or investing in next-generation search technology?
