About

I completed my M.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University in 2026. Previously, I completed my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering at UC Santa Barbara in 2024.

My research goal is to make robots reliably perceive and act under contact uncertainty. I work on tactile sensing systems and learning-based control for contact-rich tasks, with an emphasis on real-world robustness.

I am honored to have worked with Prof. Ding Zhao and PhD student Changyi Lin at CMU’s Safe AI Lab, and with Prof. Elliot Hawkes at UCSB.

Research interests

  • Visuo-tactile sensing for deformation and surface appearance cues
  • Contact-rich manipulation and locomotion with tactile feedback
  • Sim-to-real policy learning (RL, imitation, diffusion, VLA)
