I am a Ph.D. Student in Intelligent Systems and Robotics at the University of West Florida (UWF) and Graduate Research Assistant at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) advised by Dr. Robert Griffin. I work at the intersection of robotic perception and autonomy, with a focus on enabling intelligent systems to manipulate, navigate, and collaborate in cluttered real-world environments. My research areas for Humanoid, Quadruped, Wheeled & Aerial robots include:
- Object Pose Estimation for Manipulation
- Learning driven Manipulation for Humanoids
- SLAM & Scene Knowledge Graph for Multi-agent Collaboration & Exploration
At IHMC lab, I contribute to advancing Model based Affordance Template driven, and Model free Learning driven manipulation and Scene Knowledge Graph based locomotion with humanoids to support autonomous interactive indoor building exploration, and outdoor terrestrial and space exploration missions.
