Background

I am a third year Ph.D. student working with Prof. Murat Arcak in the Networked Dynamical Systems Group.

I graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technology with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering in May, 2010 and received a M.S. in Electrical Engineering from UC Berkeley in May, 2012. I was a member of Georgia Tech's first Honors Program class and received the Cooperative Education and Research Option degree designations. I worked at the Georgia Tech Research Institute for a total of four semesters and completed an undergraduate thesis exploring formation control methods for multiagent systems.

Research Interests

My research interests include distributed and cooperative control of multiagent systems, particularly systems with mobile agents, noncooperative control, game theory, and control synthesis for hybrid systems.
