Building something new at the intersection of AI x science.

Most recently, I was a research engineer at 1X Technologies, contributing to Redwood AI and the 1X World Model. Before that, I was the first hire and the founding research engineer at General Robotics, where I led sim2real reinforcement learning, led technical business development, and worked across just about every robot form factor - humanoids, quadrupeds, manipulator arms. I hold an MS in Robotics from Carnegie Mellon University. My first taste of startup life was at Preimage, working on 3D reconstruction - and that's what pulled me into the world of startups. Before that, I was a visiting researcher at the CLVR Lab, USC, working on continual skill learning, and a research assistant at SUTD, working on vision language models. My path into AI started even earlier, during my B.Tech (with honors) at IIIT-Delhi, where I got my first taste of robotics with the ALIVE autonomous driving team, interned at the SUTD Brain Lab working on representation learning and at NUS working on medical robotics, and generally spent my undergrad years buried in research.

Outside of work, I'm endlessly curious about physics, always reading something, chasing new places to travel to, into football, photography, and food. I'm also working through a bucket list of 100 things I want to do.
