Contemporary technologies and their potential to solve real-world problems fascinated me from my school days. This curiosity led me to pursue Electrical Engineering, and eventually to explore robotics and autonomous systems through higher studies.

 

Since then, my journey has evolved across control, optimization, robotics, autonomous systems, and AI/ML, through experiences in both academic research and industry.
