I am a computing science PhD candidate at the University of Alberta working with Marlos C. Machado and Martha White. My primary interest is reinforcement learning.

My research focuses on the temporal credit-assignment problem and efficient reward-based learning. I am particularly interested in addressing high-dimensional environments where classical methods become infeasible. To this end, my algorithms often utilize deep neural networks to process rich sensory data, which present a variety of challenges to long-term credit assignment.
