I am a co-founder and Chief Scientist at Versor, tackling some of the fundamental challenges in robotics from the lens of real2sim2real. Previously, I was a research scientist at Meta AI in Menlo Park, working on robot learning.

I’m a full-stack roboticist passionate about deploying robots in the real world. I have worked on a variety of robots and tasks, ranging from bipedal locomotion, navigation, mobile manipulation to human-robot interaction.

I believe real2sim2real is the path to robust, scaled, general purpose robots.
