I’m a Computer Science PhD candidate at Cornell Tech advised by Prof. Rajalakshmi Nandakumar. My research interests span computational imaging, computer vision and multimodal sensor fusion for applications in scene understanding, 3D reconstruction, and medical imaging. Previously, I completed my Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering at UCLA, advised by Prof. Achuta Kadambi at the Visual Machines Group. I also completed my Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Bachelor of Arts in Economics at UCLA, funded by the NSF REU Fellowship. I’ve received the Intel URP Scholarship, SRC URP Scholarship, UCLA ECE Distinguished Master’s Thesis, and UCLA ECE Outstanding Master’s Student awards.
