FOCUS:Autonomous Systems

Self-designed my Bachelor's at Northeastern in CS + Physics (Concentrations in Robotics and Biochem) to sit at the intersection of systems and the physical world as a full-ride Stamps Scholar; I am pursuing my Master's in Robotics in conjunction.

I started in ML x drug discovery research at Northeastern and Harvard Med. Built closed-loop systems that ran experiments on their own. That work pulled me toward the hardware itself, so that year I built (and sold!!) a drug discovery automation venture.

Now I'm at Lila Sciences and incoming at Amca building the systems that make robots work. Also building a patent-pending autonomous sampling robot with contamination-aware path planning.

I also run rev, Northeastern's top builder community!
