Jiarui Wu

Hi there! I am an incoming Master of Science in Intelligent Information Systems (MIIS) student at Carnegie Mellon University. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Rochester in 2024.

I am an AI researcher with a current research focus on Large Language Models and Multimodal Learning. I am currently open to summer 2026 internship opportunities. Feel free to contact me.

More About Me

Before starting my Master's degree in Fall 2025, I am currently working as a Machine Learning Engineer Intern in Shenzhen, China.

During college, I conducted AI research and projects under the supervision of Prof. Hangfeng He, Prof. Chenliang Xu, and Prof. Jiebo Luo. My past research experience focused on Generative AI and Multimodal LLMs.

Besides CS and AI, I'm a cat lover. My hobbies include fitness, reading, listening to pop music, and making to-do lists.
