 I'm a PhD student in EECS; Prof. Pister is my advisor. I joined the group in fall 2019 after graduating with BS degrees in mechanical engineering and math from the University of Texas at Austin.
-I study micromanufacturing. I build some of our group's tiny robots because it's what the group is doing (and because it's fun), but I most like to improve the methods we use to build them, not least because better manufacturing capabilities means we can make much better robots! My research endgoals include sci-fi technology like [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomically_precise_manufacturing|atomically precise manufacturing]], but that won't happen for an extremely long time.

-I'm currently best at microfabrication, mechanical engineering, and software, so I can help out if stuff needs to be microfabricated in the Marvell NanoLab or 3D printed / lasercut in the Jacobs Hall makerspace. I also run this website.

 ===== What I'm working on =====
-I started on the [[MEMS Gripper]] project in fall 2019. Since its DARPA grant expired in 2020, I've been building new grippers as tests for a number of improvements to our inchworm motors and robot assembly methods.

-In the future, I might work on [[uLEAP Asteroid Robots]], if it gets NIAC funding. I almost have a better electrostatic linear motor design worked out, and I'm considering possible ways to 3D print MEMS.
