Hello! I am a 4rd year Ph.D. student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Southern California, supervised by Shrikanth (Shri) Narayanan. My research interests are in Speech Processing, including Speaker Diarization and Automatic Speech Recognition, as well as Multimodal AI. Particularly, I have been working in the application domain of Child ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder).

Previously, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from UC San Diego with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering . I was born and raised at Nagoya city, Japan until High School, and my Japanese name is 徐安峰 / Yasumine Jo.
