I am a research scientist at Facebook AI. You can reach me at {first name without hyphen}@fb.com.
Prior to joining Facebook AI, I was the Head of Research at Megagon Labs, where I led the research efforts on building advanced technologies to enhance search by experience. We conduct research on data integration, information extraction, text mining and summarization, knowledge base construction and commonsense reasoning, and data visualization. Prior to joining Megagon Labs, I was a Professor of Computer Science at University of California, Santa Cruz. I also spent two years at IBM Research - Almaden. I received my B.Sc. (First Class) in Computer Science from the National University of Singapore and my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Pennsylvania.
I grew up in Singapore, a tropical island at the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. After completing my bachelor degree in Singapore, I spent five memorable years at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, where I obtained my Ph.D. degree. Now, I live in San Jose, California, with my husband and two lovely children, whom I spend most of my free time with.
