About me

Lester Mackey

I'm a Ph.D. student in the Computer Science division of U.C. Berkeley. I'm a member of the Statistical Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (SAIL), under the supervision of Mike Jordan. I earned my BSE in Computer Science from Princeton University in 2007. My current research interests include Statistical Machine Learning, Programming Languages, and Algorithms and Data Structures. Quixotic though it may sound, I hope to use computer science to change the world for the better. If you have thoughts on how to do this, feel free to contact me.
