About Me

I am a fifth year computer science PhD candidate at the Johns Hopkins University . I work in the SMARTS lab directed by Peter Kazanzides . My focus is on improving teleoperation using the da Vinci Reserach Kit and synthesizing low-level signals using machine learning techniques to provide high-level information. Some examples are using current measurements as a proxy for forces and using data-driven methods to improve soft-tissue simulation results.
