<h3 class="column-title">About</h3>
<p>
I am an Associate Teaching Professor in the Robotics Engineering Department
at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), with a joint appointment in
Mechanical Engineering. I lead the Autonomous Loco-Manipulation Systems
(ALMaS) Group.
</p>
<p>
My research focuses on legged robotics, construction robotics, mobile
manipulation, robotic 3D printing, and autonomous robotic systems for
construction and manufacturing applications. I am also interested in
digital twins and digital manufacturing, especially where physical robotic
systems connect with data-driven models and digital workflows. My teaching
focuses on robotics, dynamics, and control, with an emphasis on
project-based learning and the tight integration of theory,
experimentation, and real robotic systems.
