I am a researcher at Meta Superintelligence Labs, working with Lerrel Pinto and Xiaolong Wang on foundation models for robotics. Previously, I was an undergraduate researcher at the NYU CILVR Lab. My research focuses on robot learning and computer vision, with a recent emphasis on learning general robot policies from human demonstrations from “motor” to “model”. I also collaborate with Sherry Yang on learning world models. Previously, I worked with Al Olsen on developing VR games for educational applications under the supervision of Jan L. Plass at the CREATE Lab.

I’m currently exploring Ph.D. opportunities for Fall 2027. If you’re interested in my research or would like to discuss potential opportunities, I’d be happy to connect!
