About me

I am a PhD student in Mechanical Engineering at The Ohio State University working under Dr. Ayonga Hereid working on bipedal locomotion for humanoids and exoskeleton devices. I’m using optimization, template-based planners and non-linear control as the basis of my research. On the implementation side, I have developed C++ code to manage sensor data and compute real-time control algorithms for our robotic systems. I’ve previously completed a MSc. in Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University working on bipedal locomotion and lower-limb prosthetic devices.
