I recently earned my PhD from the <ahref="http://bdml.stanford.edu/">Biomimetic & Dexterous Manipulation Laboratory</a> at Stanford University, advised by Mark Cutkosky. My dissertation work was on optical sensing for visual and tactile perception to improve the physical interaction capabilities of robots. My interests in life revolve around <b>robotic sensing</b>, <b>art</b>, <b>climate change and conservation</b>, and <b>social impact</b>.

I care about a great many things in life, including: <b>robotic sensing</b>, <b>space exploration</b>, </b><b>art</b>, <b>climate change and conservation</b>, and <b>social impact</b>.

<p>In the past I have worked on NASA robots, an X-plane, and domestic robots; I've also done a few thru-hike sections (so far El Camino de Santiago, John Muir Trail), jumped out of a plane, and earned an open water dive license. I have been very grateful to receive the 2020 Interact Fellowship, 2019 Threshold Ventures Fellowship, 2018 Brooke Owens Fellowship, and 2017 AIAA 20 Twenties Laureate. I received my B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Columbia University in 2018, where I started the <ahref="http://www.columbiaspace.org">Columbia Space Initiative</a> and was very active on campus as a student organization leader.
