I am a Software Engineer at Zoox. I obtained my PhD in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Texas at Dallas (UT Dallas) with a focus on control and reinforcement learning for autonomous systems. I received my B. Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Texas at Dallas in 2017.
My research interests include:
Discovering the best ways to map observed data to decisions that affect processes that change over time
Balancing performance and robustness in control design for dynamical systems
Theoretical analysis of reinforcement learning algorithms applied to continuous control problems
Convex and nonconvex optimization
Sensor and actuator selection
Networked multi-agent systems
