Hi! I'm Lj Miranda, and welcome to my website!
I'm currently a predoctoral researcher at the AllenNLP team at Ai2. In the past, I've worked as an engineer, consultant, and researcher, mostly in the field of NLP and AI.
I'm broadly interested in data-centric approaches to building language technologies at scale. I'm happy to discuss research and collaborate, so feel free to reach out!
