About Me

I am CS PhD student in robotics & machine learning at the Robotics & Embedded Systems Lab (RESL), advised by Gaurav Sukhatme. I have 5+ years of work experience, working primarily on robotics controls problems. I have experience in object manipulation, mobile robotics, control theory, deep reinforcement learning, and computer vision. See my résumé and academic CV for more information.

My research interests are geared towards making robots perform  day-to-day activities in unstructured environments (e.g. cooking in homes). I am particularly interested in the application of learning and hierarchical planning methods for robotic manipulation tasks.
