Hi! I am a third-year PhD student at USC, working with Professor Joseph J. Lim on deep reinforcement learning for robotics. I completed my undergrad at UC Berkeley, where I worked with Professors Sergey Levine and Dinesh Jayaraman. I have interned at NAVER AI Labs and Horizon Robotics.
My research interests lie in the intersection of deep reinforcement learning and robotics. Specifically, I am interested in improving generalization and sample-efficiency of RL algorithms by injecting inductive biases (e.g., programs), incorporating large offline datasets (e.g., through offline RL), and guiding agents with external knowledge (e.g., large language models).
