Applied Scientist · Ring AI (Amazon) — Seattle, WA
Hello! I am an Applied Scientist II at Amazon Ring AI (since July 2025), where I work on vision-language models (VLMs) and LLM-based multimodal reasoning for video understanding and object detection. Previously, I was an Applied Scientist II at Amazon Prime Video (June 2022 - June 2025).
I earned my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at the University of South Florida in the Secure & Intelligent Systems Lab, working under the direction of my advisor, Dr. Yasin Yilmaz. During my Ph.D., my research interests included computer vision, continual learning, and statistical anomaly detection. Previously, I earned an M.S. in Electrical Engineering from USF in 2018.
