I'm an AeroAstro PhD student in the NAVLAB, Stanford advised by Dr. Grace Gao. I use AI, sensor fusion, and theoretical frameworks to provide safe and reliable navigation for autonomous systems in extremely challenging environments and extreme dynamics.
I finished defending my dissertation in June 2023 and am currently looking for new opportunities. I graduated from Stanford with an MS in Aerospace Engineering in 2021 and from Georgia Tech with a BS in Aerospace Engineering in 2018.
