I’m a PhD student working on self-driving cars at the UC Berkeley RISELab, where I’m advised by Professor Ion Stoica and Professor Joseph Gonzalez.
I’m interested in how techniques from computer systems can make self-driving cars safer and more reliable. To that effect, I’ve helped build 2 open-source software projects:
- ERDOS is a dataflow system for building self-driving car and robotics applications.
- Pylot is a modular self-driving car platform that runs on both real cars and in simulation.
Previously, I contributed to several successful open-source projects:
- Ray is a popular framework for developing distributed applications.
- Modin scales pandas workflows to terabytes.
I also interned at Google Deepmind in Summer and Fall 2023.
