I am a PhD student in MIT’s AeroAstro department advised by Prof. Julie Shah and part of the Interactive Robotics Group (IRG). My research interest is in using augmented reality to help people, specifically non-roboticists, understand the AI-enabled robots working around them using tools from cognitive information theory and Bayesian inference methods.
Prior to becoming a PhD student, I was the research engineer in IRG, where my role included project management, programming, solution and system design, hardware configuration, etc. Prior to joining IRG, I worked as an IT manager and consultant in the corporate and education sectors.
My educational background includes a BS in Management Information Systems from the University of South Florida and an MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a Robotics Specialization from Boston University.
