I am currently a computer science graduate student at Columbia University studying natural language processing. I have a variety of interests relating to software engineering, but am particularly interested in the use of NLP techniques for text-based information extraction and data mining. Additionally, I am interested in developing software to improve the creation and use of hierarchies of real-world named entities and concepts. Check out my projects page for more info on what I'm currently working on and some selected code.
My track advisor is Dr. Julia Hirschberg.
Before my classwork at Columbia, I attended Yeshiva University and graduated with a B.A. in Computer Science. Prior to that, I studied Jewish history and law at Yeshivat Kerem B'Yavneh in Israel.
Courses I'm currently taking:
- Natural Language Processing for the Web
