I'm a graduate student at Georgia Tech, where I am working at the intersection of machine learning and robotics. This website was created to share my work and crystallize my thoughts through writing.

Nothing on here is unique. It is an amalgamation of all that I've read so far, helping me observe this world of ours through fresh eyes. If I happen to see far, it's because I stand on the shoulders of giants.

Beyond the classroom, you might find me at a CrossFit gym, in quiet meditation, lost in a good book, or coaxing melodies from piano keys.

May all beings be happy 🌻
