Hello and welcome to my webpage!
I’m currently pursuing my Master’s degree in Robotics at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I'm also working as a lab assistant in the BioElectronic Vision Lab under the guidance of Professor James Weiland. The primary project I participate in focuses on developing smart glasses designed to assist individuals with blindness and low vision. My research interests lie in leveraging robotics and AI technologies to empower people with disabilities or impairments.
Previously, I earned my Bachelor’s degree from New York University, majoring in Mathematics with a minor in Computer Science. During my time at NYU, I was a research assistant in the VMIL/REACTIV Lab led by Professor John Ross Rizzo. There, I contributed to the UNav project, which aimed to enhance mobility for individuals with blindness and low vision.
On my webpage, you can explore the work I’ve done, including my academic projects and research. I hope you find the content insightful and informative. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!
