Background
Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Colorado Boulder
Research focuses on making AI systems more trustworthy—ensuring they behave safely, fairly, and responsibly even as they learn and adapt
Integrates formal methods (e.g., formal languages, automata, logic) with AI to enable explainable, reliable, and verifiable human-AI collaboration
Emphasizes principled AI interaction: enabling humans to communicate goals, constraints, and expectations in precise, transparent, and verifiable ways
Research interests include: Safety in AI, Reinforcement Learning, Formal Methods, Software Fairness, and Software Accountability
Member of the Programming Languages and Verification (CUPLV) group
