I am a Robotics PhD student at Georgia Tech in the Robotics Perception and Learning (RIPL) Lab. My research involves imitation learning and reinforcement learning for robots. During the Fall of 2025, I was an AI resident at 1X Technologies, working on scaling simulation. I plan to graduate with my PhD in the Summer of 2026. My dissertation will be on robot data augmentation.

In the summer of 2023 I was an intern at Honda Research Institute working on deep learning-based dexterous manipulation under Jinda Cui and Soshi Iba. During my bachelor’s degree, I was an undergraduate research assistant in the Human Centered Robotics Lab where I was mentored by Dr. Luis Sentis and Dr. Gray Thomas. I spent my summers interning at SpaceX, Harmonic Bionics, and NASA JPL. Additionally, I spent a large amount of time co-founding and leading Longhorn Racing Electric. During my PhD, I’ve the pleasure of mentoring two masters students, Justin Wit and Robert Azarcon.
