About me

I am an assistant professor in AI at the University of Amsterdam, with a joint position between the Institute for Logic, Language, and Computation, and the Informatics Institute. My work focuses on interpretable machine learning for applications in science and society. Previously, I was a researcher at Microsoft Research AI for Science and at the Partnership on AI. I have a PhD in explainable ML from the University of Amsterdam, supervised by Maarten de Rijke and Hinda Haned. My MSc and BSc are both in mathematics from McMaster University in Canada, both supervised by Miroslav Lovric.
