I am a PhD Student in the Systems Engineering Department at the University of Virginia. After graduating from UVA in 2019 with my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Minor in Design Integration, I worked for Rolls-Royce in Indianapolis. There, as a member of the Graduate Development Program, I worked in several roles, including controls, thermal systems, engine weight reduction, and operational support. I have returned to UVA to pursue my PhD studying robotics, particularly safe and resilient operation under uncertainty.
