About Me

Hi! I’m a PhD student in the Robotics program at the University of Colorado Boulder, advised by Morteza Lahijanian and Nisar Ahmed.

Previously, I was an Autonomy Engineer at the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University from 2024 to 2026. There, I worked on robotic simulation, and analysis and test methods for autonomous systems.

Before that, I spent five years as a Software Systems Engineer at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. There I was a Rover Planner for the Curiosity rover, GDS lead for the CADRE mission, and I built and ran the telemetry processing behind the visualization of the Mars 2020 Perseverance landing (as seen by the public!)

I earned my B.S. in Computer Science and Robotics from Carnegie Mellon University in 2019.

I also occasionally have a side gig in theater and event tech. Check out some of the cool shows I’ve done!

I really like to ski, climb, and backpack, and can often be found on a mountain somewhere.
