About Me

I’m a first-year Robotics PhD student at Carnegie Mellon University, advised by Dr. Henny Admoni and Dr. Zackory Erickson. My research interests lie in manipulation, robot learning, and human-robot interaction. I’m currently developing interactive imitation learning methods that let robots learn manipulation skills more effectively from less human data for real-world long-horizon tasks. I’m also a 2025 NSF Graduate Research Fellow.

I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science from Colorado School of Mines. During undergrad, I conducted research advised by Dr. Tom Williams at the MIRRORLab and Dr. Kaveh Fathian at the ARIA Lab. I was previously a Caltech WAVE Fellow advised by Dr. Soon-Jo Chung at the ARCL. I’ve worked as a software engineer at Autonomous Solutions Inc. and as a software engineering intern at two engineering companies.

Outside of research, I love bouldering and am on the CMU Climbing Team. I also enjoy skiing, hiking, and camping.
