Nivasini Ananthakrishnan

I am a fourth year PhD student at UC Berkeley advised by Nika Haghtalab and Michael I. Jordan. I am affliated with the Berkeley AI Research Lab and CLIMB. My research centers around learning and decision-making in environments with complexities such as strategic behavior and information asymmetry.

Previously, I completed my Master's and Bachelor's degrees in computer science at the University of Waterloo, where I was advised by Shai Ben-David.
