I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Aeronautics and Astronautics department at MIT. As a researcher, I work on developing methods for effective human-robot teaming with a focus on contact-rich tasks that are physically demanding on people. My main research interests lie in shared autonomy and robot learning. Before working in robotics, I was a manager at Epic Systems working on patient portals. I received my BS in mechanical engineering from Tufts University in 2014 and my MS/PhD in mechanical engineering from UW-Madison in 2019 and 2023, respectively. If you are interested in chatting/collaborating, don't hesitate to reach out!

I look for ways to make it easier for robots and humans to work together to complete complicated tasks. My research falls at the intersection of Learning from Demonstration (LfD), physical Human-Robot Interaction (PHRI), and shared autonomy.
