About Me
I am currently a postdoctoral associate advised by Prof. Yiannis Aloimonos and Prof. Pratap Tokekar in the Maryland Robotics Center and Perception and Robotics Group (PRG). PRG is associated with the University of Maryland Institute of Advanced Computer Science Studies (UMIACS). I am a recipient of Ann G. Wylie Fellowship for Oustanding Dissertation (2022-2023), Future Faculty Fellowship (2022-2023) and Computer Science Dean's Fellowship (2018-2020).
My work is focused on developing Minimal Perception and Efficient Artificial Intelligence (AI) frameworks for resource-constraint robot autonomy. My work lies at the intersection of robotics, computer vision, artificial intelligence and computational imaging. Apart from research, I love to teach! In my spare time, I love to capture nature on my camera, especially landscape and wildlife photographs; creating digital artwork and watch/play competitive video games — Counter Strike and Dota 2. You can also find my mother's artwork portfolio here.
