👤 Who am I?

I am a risk-taker. I throw myself in "high-friction" environments for the heat. Whether it's reverse-engineering physics simulations or stepping into high-pressure leadership roles, my primary metric is iteration speed.

While my ML models are training, you might find me training in the gym, debugging my university assignments, or sleeping.

🔴 Progress

Current Deployments:

  • 🔬 Machine Learning Researcher @ WAT.ai: Researching the usage of Vision-Language Models to develop preference feedback data pipelines for robot manipulation.
  • ⚙️ Side project: Developing continuous-action Reinforcement Learning agents using PyTorch to optimize drone stabilization against high-frequency recoil in a MuJoCo environment.

Past Operations:

  • 👨‍🏫 ML Instructor @ ZeroToML: Instructed a 100-student cohort on machine learning fundamentals and neural network architectures (Winter 2026).
