Background
- Final-year Computer Science undergraduate at the University of Toronto
- Research spans robotics and 3D computer vision, with a focus on generalizable robot manipulation
- Interested in enabling robots to perform complex, long-horizon tasks from simple instructions (e.g., “prepare a dish from this cookbook”)
- Approach leverages Foundation Models to learn from vast online human knowledge instead of costly manually collected data
- Actively seeking Master’s or PhD positions in Robotics and Computer Vision for Fall 2026
