I am a 3rd year Robotics Ph.D. student at the Georgia Institute of Technology, advised by Dhruv Batra and Sonia Chernova, and work closely with Devi Parikh. I am interested in working at the intersection of machine learning and robotics. My long-term research goal is to develop robots that are scalable, robust and capable of working in complex, real world environments.

I am currently an intern at NVIDIA, working with Clemens Eppner, Ankur Handa, and Dieter Fox on object rearrangement. In the summer of 2020, I was an intern at Facebook AI Research, working with Akshara Rai on learning dynamics aware navigation policies for multiple robot embodiments.

As an undergrad, I worked in the Robotics and Intelligent Vehicles Research (RIVeR) lab at Northeastern University with Taskin Padir. During my time there, I competed at the 2019 RoboCup@Home competition in Sydney, Australia and the 2018 World Robot Summit in Tokyo, Japan.

I also have the pleasure of mentoring three students, Max Rudolph (2nd year MS@GT), Simar Kareer (1st year MS@GT), and Marco Delgado (3rd year BS@GT) in research projects.
