about

Hi, my name is Melody! I'm a junior at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering studying computer science and applied math, originally from SF Bay Area, CA. I have a huge range of interests in the field of computer science, ranging from AI for cybersecurity, to traditional SWE, to biomedical research! I'm currently learning a little bit of everything but am focusing primarily on the intersection of machine learning and systems: developing benchmarks for evaluating LLMs as security threats, building out my own startup in the art consulting space, and working hard on projects at IBM!
