I am a member of the Technical Staff at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, where I work on autonomy, multiagent coordination, and decision making under uncertainty. My work focuses on building algorithms that help humans and autonomous systems collaborate effectively in complex, safety-critical settings.
I received my Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from Stanford University, where I was a member of the Stanford Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SISL) advised by Mykel Kochenderfer. My research explored how autonomous agents can coordinate and communicate under uncertainty, with an emphasis on human-AI collaboration and decentralized multiagent planning.
My background spans research, engineering, and operational aviation. Before Stanford, I worked on airborne collision avoidance systems at MIT Lincoln Laboratory while completing my M.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT, contributing to the development of ACAS X. I later served as an F-22 Operational Test and Evaluation Pilot with the United States Air Force and continue in that role with the Nevada Air National Guard, where my work centers on autonomy and simulation as a subject matter expert.
