I'm interested in making robots accomplish complex tasks efficiently and robustly. This includes researching optimal control, learning, and foundation models, among other algorithmic frameworks which achieve intelligent motion. My goal is developing models that work in the "real-world," which requires not just simulating results, but physically building and testing robotic systems to understand them.
I have a B.S. in Applied Math and Mechanical Engineering (Honors) from Yale University. I start a masters in robotics at Carnegie Mellon University in the fall.
I'm from Seattle, so I grew up loving rain and evergreen trees. I enjoy trail running, learning, and getting to know people.
