Hi! I'm James, and I'm passionate about exploring the intersections of AI and human interaction. Currently, I'm pursuing my M.Sc. in Computer Science at The University of Texas at Dallas.
I've had the privilege of working at leading tech companies like Amazon and Samsung Research America.
My research journey began as an Undergraduate Researcher, where I worked on Imbalanced Data Classification with LLMs. I'm currently deepening my knowledge in Deep Learning and NLP through advanced coursework and independent study.
