I’m an incoming M.S. student at UC Berkeley working on robotics as if people mattered. I’m a huge fan of cats (especially Pusheen), books (especially those by Haruki Murakami), and alternative music (especially that of Radiohead). In my free time, I do origami and hack things together. I’ve worked as a SWE Intern @ Intuit, Data Engineering Intern @ SpaceX and currently work on perception for autonomous vehicles @ NVIDIA. I’ve had the privilege of being part of various student groups while at Berkeley:

• Machine Learning @ Berkeley
• Space Technologies @ Cal
• The Berkeley Forum
• Eta Kappa Nu
• iOS DeCal
• Codebase

Academic Summary

I work under Anca Dragan as part of the InterACT Lab. Broadly, I am interested in making interaction between robots and humans more flexible and intuitive.

We recently published work on quantifying the benefits of explicitly modeling humans in an autonomous vehicles context in HRI 2019.
