I used to jump. And was actually decent at it.

Hi hello!

I am a Ph.D. student in robotics. I am fortunate to be advised by Professor Maxim Likhachev , and Professor Jiaoyang Li . We currently work on planning and learning in multi-agent settings. I had the pleasure of working with Professor Sebastian Scherer during my first year at CMU. We focused on applying deep learning for visual odometry estimation.

Previously, I was a student at MIT working in CSAIL at Nicholas Roy’s Robust Robotics Group , and I was fortunate to play with robots spend time at Indoor Robotics, Amazon Robotics, and Optimus Ride.
