ABOUT ME ! 

I am a PhD Candidate at Georgia Institute of Technology. I’m working with Dr. Zsolt Kira at the Institute of Robotics & Intelligent Machines. I also closely collaborate with Sergey ZakharovRares Ambrus and Adrien Gaidon from Toyota Research Institute. My current research focuses on 3D perception, Scene Understanding and Embodied AI and covers topics such as neural implicit reconstruction, efficient 3D object detection, 6D pose estimation, visual embodied navigation and semantic & spatial reasoning.

I have been fortunate to spend time at Toyota Research Institute (ML-R) working on compositionality of neural-radiance based representations and implicit models for 3D shape, appearance and pose optimization. I also spent the wonderful summers before at Toyota Research Institute (Robotics) (Summer’21) and SRI International (Summer’20) working on 3D perception, scene understanding and semantic and spatial reasoning for embodied agents.

Feel free to contact me to talk anything related to Robotics, Deep Learning or related to some of my projects. Below you will find my projects portfolio. You can find my resume here
