I’m a master’s student at UC San Diego, where I do research with Professor Zhuowen Tu and Professor Zhiting Hu. I’m working as an Applied Scientist Intern at Typeface this summer, and I worked as a Machine Learning Engineer Intern at Tesla.

My main research interests are in spatial intelligence, autoresearch and world models. I'm particularly interested scene reconstruction/understanding and building environments where agents can autonomously navigate complex research questions across the sciences and materials.
