About Me

I am currently a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Computer Science at Stanford University, affiliated with the Stanford Robotics Center and the Stanford Center on Longevity. I am fortunate to be supported by the New Map of Life Fellowship program. I work with Steve Cousins and Oussama Khatib on research focused on companion robots, with an emphasis on robot navigation, scene understanding, and human behavior perception and recognition.

Before joining Stanford, I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park, where I worked in the GAMMA Lab advised by Dr. Dinesh Manocha. My doctoral research focused on robot navigation and perception, spanning both indoor and outdoor environments.
