I am a Senior Applied Scientist at Amazon. I lead the research and development of LLM-native recommendation architectures, driving advances in generative retrieval via Semantic IDs and foundation model alignment to support next-generation personalization paradigms. My broader research interests center on reasoning and personalization for generative recommendation, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and agentic systems, specifically exploring memory context management and computer-use capabilities.
