I am a PhD student in Computer Science at Columbia University, advised by Yunzhu Li and Tony Dear. I am also an AI scientist at the Verizon AI Center in New York City. Previously, I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from Purdue University and a master's degree in Computer Science from Georgia Tech.

I work at the intersection of computer vision and robotics, developing multi-modal foundation models for generalizable resasoning across diverse tasks. I aim to leverage my experiences in academic research and applied industry to advance the frontier of AI.
