My Mission

Currently pursuing my Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering at the Carnegie Mellon University, specializing in robotics. I believe the interaction between humans and cutting edge technology is the future of intelligent human assistance. My current research goals are to design and develop a hand exoskeleton to enable better motor function for people after stroke, spinal cord injury, and limb loss. My academic interests lie in robotics, mechatronics, machine learning, controls, and prosthetics. I hope to better understand the field of robotics and human needs to provide a technological solution to real problems, helping people in need. In addition to my academic drive, I train as a high level athlete in Olympic Karate competing on the national and international level representing Team USA.
