I am a PhD student at The Robotics Institute @ Carnegie Mellon University, co-advised by David Held and Shubham Tulsiani. My research lies at the intersection of Computer Vision and Robot Learning for Manipulation. I’m interested in building systems that extract useful information from messy real-world data, and in learning generalizable representations for dexterous manipulation that transfers across embodiments.

Previously, I completed my Masters in Robotics at CMU, advised by David Held. I was a Software Engineer at Samsung Research, where I worked on Depth Estimation and 3D Scene Reconstruction. I also spent a period of time as a Research Assistant at the MIDAS lab in IIIT-Delhi. I completed my B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering from PES University in 2021 with a specialization in Data Science.

Feel free to email me! I’m happy to chat about any and all topics, and if for some reason you’d like more of my time, you can bribe me with a donation: any amount, to a charity you believe in. (why?)
