I am a PhD student specializing in autonomy and perception, with hands-on experience in UAVs, control systems, sensor fusion, and deep learning. Before starting my PhD, I worked as a software developer at MathWorks for four years, where I developed my expertise in designing software for autonomous systems.

My foundation is grounded in a rigorous approach to problem-solving, centered on first principles and advanced mathematics. I’m particularly drawn to the intersections of mathematics, perception, embedded hardware, and control systems—core elements of autonomy that captivate me both in theory and practice.
