Social learning helps humans and animals rapidly adapt to new circumstances, and drives the emergence of complex learned behaviors. My research is focused on Social Reinforcement Learning—developing algorithms that combine insights from social learning and multi-agent training to improve AI agents' learning, generalization, coordination, and human-AI interaction.

I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering, where I lead the Social RL Lab. I am also a Senior Research Scientist at Google DeepMind.
