I'm a sophomore at UT Austin pursuing a B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering Honors and a B.B.A. in the Canfield Business Honors Program (GPA: 3.96, expected May 2028).

My work spans the full stack of autonomous systems, from bare-metal RTOS kernels and custom PCB design to ROS 2 motion planning and on-device TinyML inference. I'm currently an undergraduate researcher at the Autonomous Mobile Robotics Laboratory, building a perception-driven motion planning pipeline for a 7-DOF Kinova mobile manipulator in Isaac Sim.

I'm actively looking for fall 2026 through summer 2027 internships and research collaborations in robotics and autonomous systems.
