About Me

I am a 4th year undergraduate student at UC Davis majoring in Computer Science and Engineering. I currently work with Prof. Iman Soltani and Prof. Stephen K. Robinson.

My research interests are in contact-rich manipulation in unstructured environments. I’m interested in robotics, embodied AI, and computer vision. I want to make manipulators more capable, increasing their intelligence, perception, and affinity for contact.
