About Me
I am a PhD student in Computer Science at Louisiana State University, working as a Graduate Research Assistant under Dr. Umar Farooq. My research sits at the intersection of static program analysis, LLM evaluation, and the applications of agentic AI, with a focus on building benchmarks and experimental pipelines to evaluate and improve developer tools. My work has been published at AST 2026, with manuscripts under review at EMNLP and OOPSLA, advancing the reliability and correctness of AI-powered developer experiences.
Research Interests
- LLM Evaluation & Benchmarking: Designing benchmarks and automated pipelines to evaluate frontier LLMs on software engineering tasks
- Agentic AI: Building LLM-powered agentic systems that integrate with formal verification and static analysis workflows
- Static Program Analysis: Developing static analysis techniques for Android and JVM programs (FlowDroid, Soot, SootUp)
- Formal Verification: Applying formal methods (OpenJML, KeY) to automated specification synthesis and bug detection
