Roboticist working on physical AI, autonomous systems, perception and learning-based robot manipulation.
Masters in Robotics Systems Development at Carnegie Mellon University - The Robotics Institute
I work at the intersection of autonomous robotics and learning-based systems, with a focus on perception, dexterous manipulation, and physical AI. My work spans medical robotics, including robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery and robotic ultrasound, as well as large-scale agricultural and automotive robotic systems. I’ve built production-ready 3D reconstruction pipelines, motion planners, and learning-based manipulation systems deployed in real environments, including manufacturing at Magna International. Currently, I’m deeply focused on advancing Vision Language Action models and embodied intelligence that intersect learning and planning.
Alongside my masters program, I have been a Swartz Entrepreneurial Fellow at the Swartz Centre for Entrepreneurship at the Tepper School of Business, building the foundation to launch my own robotics company in the future focused on delivering cutting edge innovation directly into the real world.
Outside of work, I enjoy reading mystery thrillers, I'm an avid car enthusiast, I love traveling, and playing video games.
I'm always open to discussing new exciting ideas and catching up on coffee chats, feel free to reach out!
