Towards
Long-Horizon
Embodied Intelligence.
I build AI systems that perceive, understand, reason, plan, and act over long horizons in the physical world.
Building AI that perceives, reasons, plans & acts over long horizons.
My work spans LLMs and agentic systems, computer vision, and reinforcement learning, from product development and production ML & data platforms at Uber to peer-reviewed conference papers at the IEEE Int. Conf. on Robotic Computing and Springer CCIS, with workshop papers at CVPR and AAAI. With that foundation, I'm now moving toward robot learning and embodied AI, where reinforcement learning, world models, and multimodal foundation models meet perception, planning, and control on real robots.

From Perception to Action.
I develop AI systems that perceive, reason, plan, and act over extended horizons in the physical world.
Embodied AI
Agents that perceive, learn, and act in the real world, bridging sim-to-real RL and language-conditioned policies.
Long-Horizon Planning
Hierarchical, adaptive planning for tasks that unfold over time.
World Models
Learning predictive models of dynamics to simulate and imagine.
Reasoning Systems
Symbolic and neural reasoning for reliable decision-making.
Multimodal Learning
Grounding language, vision, and action, toward vision-language-action policies for control.
Scientific Discovery
AI that generates hypotheses, designs experiments, and verifies.
Building Intelligence That Understands the World.
Research spanning reinforcement learning, computer vision, and AI for scientific discovery.
