About me
I'm a Ph.D student at the University of Washington, advised by Dieter Fox. I work in robotics, computer vision, and machine learning, and am currently investigating how to do activity recognition with depth cameras. I am part of the Robotics and State Estimation lab.
I did my bachelor's at the University of California at Berkeley (go Bears!), in computer science and mathematics. Besides Washington and California, I have also lived in Illinois,
Texas, Oklahoma, and Oregon, in reverse order.

Schoolwork
- I wrote an honors math thesis on finding minimum spanning trees. PDF.
- CS 288: Natural language processing. An attempt at end-to-end translation from Russian to English. Probably the most interesting results were our Russian/English corpus and stemming algorithm. PDF.
- In 2009 and 2010 I found threads and needles using stereo vision. A writeup on some intermediate results. (With Shervin Javdani, advised by Pieter Abbeel).
