I am a Postdoctoral Associate in CSAIL at MIT. I work in the Distributed Robotics Lab with Professor Daniela Rus. I completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Santa Barbara, advised by Professor Francesco Bullo. I completed my Master's in Electrical Engineering at the University of Toronto advised by Professors Bruce A. Francis and Mireille E. Broucke.

Research Interests

My research interests are in distributed control of autonomous systems, robotic motion coordination, and optimization. I have focused on developing provably efficient algorithms for task allocation and dynamic vehicle routing in groups of autonomous robots.
