Biography
Hello! I am a Ph.D. student at Lehigh University advised by Prof. Cristian-Ioan Vasile. I am highly interested in perception-aware planning and control for autonomous robots with safety and correctness guarantees.
Before embarking on my journey at Lehigh, I was a visiting research intern at the Intelligent Manipulation Lab, University of Lincoln, UK where I got the opportunity to work on planning and control for human-robot shared manipulation.
Here is my professional summary.
