Working on autonomy for next generation drones at Skydio.

Previously worked at ViaBot as a Robotics Software Engineer, developing autonomous solutions for outdoor cleaning and maintenance. I applied my skills in motion planning, nonlinear control, and State Estimation to design, test, and deploy software for robotic platforms that can navigate complex environments and perform various tasks.

I obtained my Master of Engineering in Robotics from the University of Maryland, College Park. I participated in multiple projects on legged robotics, autonomous vehicles, and human-robot interaction, contributing to the development of novel algorithms, models, and simulations. I was also a part of Research with multiple faculty through my master's.

My interests lie in creating innovative and impactful solutions for real-world problems in the Robotics Domain. I love working with both hardware and software, and I enjoy collaborating with diverse and talented teams. I am always eager to learn new skills and technologies and to challenge myself with new and exciting opportunities.
