Before that, I got bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (Honors Program) and Mathematics (Control Systems track) at the University of Michigan. I was fortunate to be part of CURLY Lab led by Prof. Maani Ghaffari. Additionally, I have had the opportunity to work closely with Prof. Heng Yang from School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) at Harvard University. Under their guidance, I have been focused on state estimation, developing both iterative and optimization-based fast implemented algorithms. I completed my Honors Thesis on Language-conditioned Manipulation in Lab for Progress advised by Prof. Chad Jenkins.

Research interests: computational methods in robotics, with a strong emphasis on optimization and machine learning
