About Me

I received my Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from the EECS Dept. at the University of Michigan Ann Arbor and moved to Microsoft Research. In Michigan, I worked with Prof. Dragomir Radev in the CLAIR group. My research focuses on Natural Language Processing and Information Retrieval, with applications to the Web and social media. I also have a strong interest in Machine Learning, Text Mining, Data Mining, Information Extraction, and Social Network Analysis.
