Hi there! I am a Ph.D. student at Stanford University, advised by Mac Schwager as part of the Multi-robot Systems Lab (MSL). I am also affiliated with the Stanford Center for AI Safety.

My interest spans multiple areas, including learning, perception, and decision making. I am interested in developing more reliable, efficient, and responsive intelligent systems for various applications, such as transportation, healthcare/medicine, and environment/sustainability, ultimately improving human life. My research is interdisciplinary in nature.

Feel free to schedule a meeting for important discussions. I love honest feedback, tell me something anonymously (inspired by Stewart Grant).
