My research focuses on using Large Language Models (LLMs) in low-resource domains.

Previously, I studied and worked at the Higher School of Economics, doing research in computational social science and teaching R and Python for data science.

Away from research, I write about Linux, experiment with code, and automate the boring things. Occasionally, cooking enters the picture.
