I’m a PhD student at Colorado State University studying Computer Science particularly machine learning, situated grounding and embodied agents. I’m also a member of the SIGNAL Lab, advised by Dr. Nikhil Krishnaswamy.

My research involves developing assistive AI agents using a data-centric approach that can understand the situational context of spaceflight-analog balancing tasks as a guide for humans to combat spatial disorientation.

I am a Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) for the Software Engineering course at Colorado State. One of my responsibilites include maintaining the CI/CD infrastructure as part of DevOps for the course.
