Robotics and machine learning researcher/engineer focused on building surgical and robotic systems end-to-end—from hardware and sensing to real-time control and AI deployment. I develop vision-based localization and tracking, and implement safe, stable control strategies for real-world environments. I’ve contributed across the full ML/robotics stack: publishing research, building simulation pipelines (ROS, Gazebo/IsaacSim/SOFA/CoppeliaSim), and engineering production-ready AI inference for mobile clients with backend systems. I enjoy modular software architecture, reusable components, and rigorous validation from simulation through deployment.…Robotics and machine learning researcher/engineer focused on building surgical and robotic systems end-to-end—from hardware and sensing to real-time control and AI deployment.
