Congratulations to fourth-year Ph.D. student Sharon Levy, who has been selected to receive an Amazon Fellowship for her research in Natural Language Processing! She works in the UC Santa Barbara's Natural Language Processing (NLP)  Group under the advisory of NLP Group Co-Director and Computer Science Professor William Wang.

Amazon's gift enables Levy to focus on her studies, while progressing her research endeavors and projects at her freedom. She is currently exploring technology as it relates to fairness and bias.

The Computer Science Department is very proud of you Sharon!
