What do I work on?

I look for ways to make it easier for robots and humans to work together to complete complicated tasks. Currently, I study how to fuse together robot behaviors and real-time user corrections to address tasks that have a high-level of variability. My research falls at the intersection of Learning from Demonstration (LfD), Physical Human-Robot Interaction (PHRI), and Shared Autonomy.
