I’m a PhD candidate in Electrical and Systems Engineering at the General Robotics, Automation, Sensing & Perception, GRASP Lab at the University of Pennsylvania. I am co-advised by Prof. Ani Hsieh and Prof. Vijay Kumar.

My research interests lie in data-driven predictive environment modeling for downstream tasks such as planning and active sensing. My work lies at the intersection of robot learning, adaptive planning, and dynamical systems theory.

During my PhD, I have interned as an Applied Scientist at Amazon Robotics .

Prior to joining Penn, I obtained my BSc and MSc at the University of California, Irvine in Mechanical Engineering, where I conducted research at the Clean Energy Institute (formally known as the Advanced Power and Energy Program).
