About me

I am a Ph.D. student in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at MIT, and I am affiliated with Laboratory for Information & Decision Systems (MIT LIDS). I am very fortunate to be advised by Professor Patrick Jaillet in the Online Optimization and Learning group and by Professor Gabriele Farina in the Computational Game Theory group.

My research interests broadly encompass machine learning theory, statistics, and optimization. Currently, I am focused on computational-statistical trade-offs, the understanding of overparameterized models (including non-convex optimization and generalization), learning dynamics in games and causality.

Prior to MIT, I earned a B.Sc. degree in Computer Engineering from Sharif University of Technology. During my undergrad, I was a research assistant at Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS) under supervision of Professor Bernhard Schölkopf and Professor Stefan Bauer. Besides, I spent a couple of months working with Professor Martin Jaggi at EPFL.
