I am a Robotics PhD student at Georgia Tech advised by Prof. Shreyas Kousik.

In the past, I have:

  • Developed models and control algorithms for fluid systems (BE4 rocket engine, New Glenn ground systems) at Blue Origin
  • Verified aircraft control software using model-based simulations at Gulfstream
  • Wrote LIDAR mapping, path planning, and mesh network software for GPS-denied quadrotors at Purdue UAS Research and Test Facility
