I am currently an MS CSE student at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, doing research in computer vision and robotics under Professor Nima Fazeli and Professor JJ Park.

I did my Bachelor's in CS at UC Berkeley, where I was fortunate to participate in undergraduate research in machine learning, reinforcement learning, and robotics under the mentorship of Professor Pieter Abbeel and Dr. Xingyu Lin.

We adapt dense pre-trained representations to learn generalizable manipulation skills. Our method shows significant improvements in categorical generalization over more naive pre-training paradigms and well-designed from-scratch baselines.
