Education
  • Degree: PhD; School: University of Edinburgh; Advisors: Edoardo Ponti, Alexandra Birch; Time: Current; Major: Computational Linguistics.
Background
  • Research Interests: Designing language models that are both compute-efficient and multilingual, so they can reason better under tight budgets and across languages. Professional Field: Improving the efficiency of neural models, with a particular interest in methods that could enable tokenization-free and more compute-optimal architectures. Background: PhD student at the University of Edinburgh, advised by Edoardo Ponti and Alexandra Birch.
Miscellany
  • Personal Interests: Providing support and help to researchers from underrepresented groups.
