About me

Hi! I'm a 3rd-year undergraduate at MIT (class of 2026) majoring in Computer Science and Engineering (6-3). I'm generally interested in robotics, machine learning, and building robust software. In my free time, I enjoy reading short stories, playing jazz piano, and learning languages.

Previously, I interned at Amazon Web Services on the Creative Tools team. At MIT, I've done research in the Computer-Aided Programming Group and the Computational Cognitive Science Group.

Currently, I am researching robot task and motion planning using foundation models in the Learning and Intelligent Systems Group.
