01 — About
I'm a robotics engineer pursuing a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at UT Austin, focused on autonomous systems and intelligent machines.
I started at Duke University where I built battle bots and walking robots — hands-on projects that taught me more than any lecture. I care about the full stack: from control theory to physical fabrication.
Outside the lab: motorcycles, Colombian cooking, travel, and a deep conviction that the best engineers are also curious humans.
