About Me

Welcome to my website! My name is Aarohi, and I'm a third-year Ph.D student in Computer Science at the University of Notre Dame. I work in Dr. David Chiang's Natural Language Processing (NLP) lab. I am passionate about NLP research and applications, particularly related to language modeling and downstream tasks in low-resource settings. I graduated from Yale University with a B.S. in Computer Science, where I worked in the computational linguistics lab. I am originally from Morgantown, West Virginia.
