<p class="lead mb-5">
I am a machine learning scientist at <a href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/innovation/artificial-intelligence" target=_blank>Amazon</a>.
Prior to Amazon, I have worked at various research institutes including <a href='https://www.isi.edu/' target=_blank>Information Sciences Institute</a> at <a href='https://www.usc.edu/' target=_blank>University of Southern California (USC)</a>,
<a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/group/adaptive-systems-and-interaction/" target=_blank>Microsoft Research Redmond (MSR)</a>,
<a href="https://yahooresearch.tumblr.com/" target=_blank>Yahoo! Labs Sunnyvale</a>,
<a href="https://cs.soe.ucsc.edu/" target=_blank>University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC)</a>, and
<a href="https://www.henryford.com/hcp/research" target=_blank>Henry Ford Health System</a>,
and startup companies such as <a href="https://turi.com/" target=_blank>Turi (ex. Graphlab)</a>
and <a href="http://www.ifwe.co/" target=_blank>The Meet Group (ex. Tagged)</a>.<br/>
I received my Ph.D. from the <a href="http://cs.umd.edu" target=_blank>Department of Computer Science, University of Maryland College Park (UMD)</a>
advised by <a href="https://getoor.soe.ucsc.edu/" target=_blank>Lise Getoor, Ph.D.</a><br/>
My research interests include Machine Learning and Data Science especially in areas related to applications of Deep Learning and Probabilistic Graphical Models in Multi-Relational and Heterogeneous Graph Mining, Information Extraction and Integration, Recommender Systems, Spam and Fraud Detection, Statistical Relational Learning, and Biomedical and Health Informatics.
I have also received M.Sc. degrees in Bioinformatics and Software Engineering. <br/>
I have published papers, been the program committee, and organized workshops at conferences such as KDD, ICML, NIPS, WWW, SDM, ICDM, and WSDM. </p>
