Overview

About Me

I am a graduate student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Nevada, Reno. I'm starting my third year in the program. I got my B.S. in Mathematics at the University of Washington in Seattle, where I also minored in Philosophy (focusing on logic, social philosophy, and ancient philosophy).

About My Work

I work in the UNR Robotics Lab, under Monica Nicolescu. My interests in computer science are mainly related to social artificial intelligence and learning, particularly in the context of autonomous mobile robots.

My interest in Mathematics hasn't waned since my switch to Computer Science, though. For the most part, my favorite mathematical subjects have always been closely related to computing: Mathematical Logic, Probability, and Combinatorics. I appreciate them for their applications and for their beauty, and still like to explore them when I have some free time.
