😐 About Me

Hello! I am a Ph.D. candidate at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in the Mechanical Science and Engineering departement since August 2021. I am affiliated to the Advanced Controls Research Laboratory, supervised by Professor Naira Hovakimyan. My research interest is in bringing data-driven control and robust & adaptive control together for autonomous systems to address safety problems. More generally speaking, I am interested in making things work with theoretical guarantees in the presence of uncertainty.

Currently, I am the PI of the project Congestion Aware Path Planning for Optimal UAS Traffic Management supported by NASA (May 2022 - Current). Description of our work including the interview can be found here, and we will largely appreciate any penny to support our work via crowdfunding.
