About Me
I'm currently a master’s student in Computer Science at the University of New Mexico. I specialize in autonomous robotics, AI, and ROS-based development. I have a strong passion for research in autonomous manipulation and algorithm development. I also enjoy competing in AI challenges in my free time.
