Reva Hirave
👋 Hi, I’m Reva (pronounced Ray-vah)! I’m a fully funded Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) student in Computer Science at Princeton University, where I’m fortunate to be advised by Manoel Horta Ribeiro.
Prior to Princeton, I earned my BSc in Software Engineering from George Mason University (Spring 2025), where I was part of the NLP group led by Antonios Anastasopoulos.
I’ve also had the privilege of working at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Speech and Language Processing (CLSP) through the Frederick Jelinek Memorial Summer Workshop on Speech and Language Technology.
I study how sociotechnical systems shape human behavior and social outcomes, with a focus on online communities, social media, and digital well-being. I use computational social science, natural language processing, and causal inference to understand how platform design and online environments influence discourse, attitudes, and user behavior.
