I am a final-year Ph.D. student at Johns Hopkins University, fortunate to be advised by Prof. Mounya Elhilali.

My Research focuses on AI for understanding and generating sound. My work spans topics such as controllable generation, voice design, source separation, and detection. I enjoy bringing research to life through interactive demos, open-source tools, and datasets for the broader audio and machine learning community.

Outside of academia, I make Music as a producer, mostly hip-hop and hyperpop. This experience shapes how I approach audio research, giving me a creator's perspective on what makes audio tools expressive, controllable, and genuinely useful in the creative process.
