I'm a recent graduate from Purdue University majoring Computer Science and minoring in Mathematics. I love to learn about anything computer science or math related, but I'm especially interested in Autonomous Robots.

My experience includes working at Kodiak Robotics (developing self-driving trucks), Amazon, and several research labs (where I worked on a co-first author IROS publication).
