Hello! I am a Ph.D. student and a Junior Research Fellow at the University of Tartu, advised by Prof. Kairit Sirts. I am broadly interested in Natural Language Processing (NLP). My current research is on Narrative Question Answering.

I received my MSc in Computer Science degree from Eötvös Loránd University, where I was supported by the Stipendium Hungaricum scholarship. I completed my BSc in Information Technology and Systems Engineering at ADA University.

• (03/2024) Our short paper “On Narrative Question Answering Skills” has been accepted to the NAACL 2024 main conference.
