About Me

I am a multimodal AI researcher, currently working with Vision-Language models in robots at the Harvard AI and Robotics Lab under Dr. Mengyu Wang (PhD).

I was previously mentored by Dr. Talmo Pereira (PhD) at the Salk Institute's Talmo Lab where we developed sample-efficient and low-latency models for 2D and 3D markerless tracking using Computer Vision. I have also been mentored by Dr. Rajeev Jain (PhD) at Qualcomm, working on Generative AI solutions for VLSI.

I completed my undergaduate program at UC San Diego where I double majored in Mathematics+Computer Science and Cognitive Science. I am currently pursuing a master's degree at Harvard University.
