Education:

• B.S. in Kinesiology, Brooklyn College
• B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, New York University
• Ph.D. Student in Mechanical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin

Research Interests:

Designing rehabilitation robots that can act as collaborative partners to therapists by modeling how therapists teach behavior and developing control algorithms capable of interpreting and responding to these actions in ways that translate directly into clinical workflows. This motivates leveraging control methodologies that exploit the guarantees of classical control theory together with adaptive machine learning methods for therapist-in-the-loop rehabilitation paradigms.

Hobbies:
Drawing, reading, and soccer
