Julie Kallini

I am a second-year Computer Science Ph.D. student at Stanford University, where I am a member of the Natural Language Processing Group. I am grateful to be advised by Chris Potts and Dan Jurafsky. My Ph.D. is generously supported by a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship, a Stanford School of Engineering Graduate Fellowship, and a Stanford EDGE Fellowship.

Previously, I worked for nearly two years as a software engineer at Meta, where I used machine learning and content understanding techniques for privacy problems in advertisements.

Before joining Meta, I graduated summa cum laude from Princeton University with a B.S.E. in Computer Science and a minor in Linguistics. I was fortunate to conduct NLP and computational linguistics research under the guidance of Christiane Fellbaum. My senior thesis, which explored the language phenomenon of coordination, won the Outstanding Senior Thesis Prize. I also received the Phillip Goldman ’86 Senior Prize, the CS department’s top academic honor.

In my spare time, I teach Applied Machine Learning as an instructor for Uplimit. I also enjoy acrylic painting! 🎨
