🤝 Services
My work includes institutional leadership at USC. My professional service focuses on
auditable AI systems at three levels: agent action, model behavior, and input
distribution, along with related machine learning areas where reliable deployment and
high-stakes use matter.
Student Qual/Thesis Committee Request (update as of 1/13/2026):
I have already served on more than 10 student committees for Spring 2026.
I am unable to take on any new student committees.
