I’m a Mechanical Engineering (Course 2) graduate research assistant in the MIT Media Lab and am advised by Ramesh Raskar. Before arriving at MIT, I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering and Computer Sciences at the University of Wisconsin - Madison under the direction of Prof. Dan Negrut. My research interests include robotics, simulation, and deep learning. I’m particularly interested in the co-design of intelligent software and intelligent hardware to improve upon human-engineered systems.
