Summary	With a keen interest in perception, controls, and state estimation, I bring a blend of academic rigor and hands-on experience in advancing robotic and autonomous systems. Currently pursuing my Master’s at CMU, I specialize in real-time state estimation and the development of perception stacks for autonomy.

Work

May'24 - Aug'24
Engineering Intern, Autonomy

Oshkosh Corporation

During my internship at Oshkosh Corporation, I implmeneted a high-accuracy semantic segmentation model and enhanced object detection in autonomous vehicles. This model significantly improved navigation reliability while reducing dependency on high-definition maps, contributing to a more adaptable and independent AV stack.
Jan'23 - Apr'23
System Simulation Intern

Gamma Technologies

During my internship at GT, I explored and implemented GT-Suite packages for various applications, with a prime focus on Electric Vehicle Modeling, Thermal Management of batteries and autonomy development models.
