I am a PhD student in the Interactive Robotics group in the department of Aeronautics and Astronautics under Professor Julie Shah. My research interests include partnering robots with humans to perform complex sensing tasks in environments that are dangerous or difficult for humans to access. Prior to joining the Interactive Robotics Group, I completed an S.B. in Aeronautics & Astronautics and Earth, Atmospheric, & Planetary Sciences, and an S.M. in the Robust Robotics Group at MIT.

I am passionate about teaching and helping students take the next step in their learning journey, wherever that may be. Aside from teaching, my hobbies include glassblowing and visiting the national parks.
