I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics at Stanford University, specializing in Robotics. I am a member of the Assistive Robotics and Manipulation Lab in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, advised by Prof. Monroe Kennedy III. I received my B.S. from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County in 2019 and my M.S. from Stanford University in 2021.
My current research interests are primarily in Human-Robot Interaction, Human Factors, and AR/VR interface design.
In this three-part study, we examined the effects of consequential and functional sounds on human perception and behavior in HRI, including a novel exploration of spatial sound through localization and handover tasks.
Design of a 3D-printed gripper combining positive and negative pressure for secure yet compliant handling during a bathing task.
A comprehensive mixed-methods study on two teleoperation methods and one non-teleoperation approach for robot control.
Splat-MOVER, a modular robotics stack for open-vocabulary robotic manipulation, leverages the editability of Gaussian Splatting (GSplat) scene representations to enable multi-stage manipulation tasks.
