New Paper in DARS2024
I am a PhD candidate in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) at Princeton University, advised by Prof. Radhika Nagpal in the Self-Organized Systems Lab. My research focuses on swarm robotics, particularly using robot teams to inspect structures in space. I explore the full spectrum of robotics, from the theoretical foundations of cooperative behavior to the practical development of swarm hardware. Through my work, I aim to advance our understanding of collaborative behavior and push the boundaries of what robot swarms can achieve in challenging and complex environments. My ultimate dream is to enable robot swarms to operate in space!
Before starting my PhD, I earned an Integrated Master’s in Physics from the University of Oxford, specializing in Biophysics, Lasers, and Quantum Information Science. At Oxford, I was also an avid 3D printing hobbyist, serving as the first female president of the Oxford Robotics and Additive Manufacturing Society.
Outside of research, I love activities like rock climbing, CrossFit, snowboarding, windsurfing, and anything else that is adrenaline-fueled! I have also lived in five different countries: USA, UK, Netherlands, Poland and India.
