About Me
I am a Masters student in Automotive Engineering, specializing in behavior planning, path planning and control of autonomous vehicles.
I am currently interning at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratory, developing behavior planner for Mitsubishi's autonomous vehicles segment in Japan
The idea of accident free roads fascinate me and I am working towards developing my skills to be a well rounded autonomous engineer.
This website is a show case of some of my projects that I have been working on. I invite you to explore my site, learn about my passions, and explore what excites and interests you as well.
