Ryu Parish (龍)

Hello!
My name is Ryu, prounouced like kangaroo
.
I am a BS/MS (Senior) student at the University of Washington, currently leading a NLP-SE project at PLSE advised by René Just and mentored by Sam Kaufman.
Previously, I was advised by Hannaneh Hajishirzi and mentored by Ellen Wu at the H2Lab and worked on a project about challenging language models to handle Mixed-Initiative Interactions. It was difficult but the things I learned were incredibly valuable and I am extremely thankful to have gotten to work with Ellen.
I transferred to the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Washington from Tarrant County College in Fort Worth, Texas back in 2021 to pursue a BS in Computer Science.
My research interests are in Applied NLP / Neurosymbolic Programming, especially in applying Large Language Models to Code Understanding. I aim to invent a system that can create robust, fully-functional applications from voice commands and/or human language text.
Here is my CV.
