I’m a junior at MIT majoring in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Robotics and Computer Science. Over the past 2 summers, I interned at GentleCare, a medical robotics startup founded by MIT Professor Harry Asada, where I helped design and prototype soft robotic systems to assist nurses taking care of patients with limited mobility. I also worked for two years as a researcher in MIT’s d’Arbeloff laboratory, creating a robotic system for soldier rescue as well as an exercise assistant mechanism and co-authoring a paper presented at the 2025 IEEE RO-MAN Conference (Kazue Tanie Award Top Finalist).

I’m also a diehard robotics competitor and love every stage of the process. From CAD and fabrication to control systems and fine tuning performance, I bring together creativity, precision, and relentless iteration to build robots that perform under pressure.
