Office: Levine Hall 403 (GRASP Lab)
I'm currently a PhD student in computer science in the GRASP lab here at Penn, working with Professor George Pappas
In 2012, I graduated with a Bachelor of Computer Engineering from the University of Minnesota, advised by Professor Stergios Roumeliotis.
Teaching
Spring 2019 -- ESE 650, Learning in Robotics
Spring 2014 -- CIS 350, Software Design & Engineering
Fall 2013 -- ESE 504, Introduction to Optimization Theory
