About Me

I am a Research Engineer at the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2), where I work on the PRIOR team. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Washington.

My research interests broadly lie in robotics and computer vision. I have been fortunate to work with Yi Li, Yuxiang Yang, and Xiangyun Meng, under the guidance of Dieter Fox and Byron Boots.
