About

Hi! I'm a Research Scientist at NVIDIA Research, where we are now working on agentic robotics. My broader research interest is in building human-centric robots that can understand people's goals and interact with them effectively.

Previously, I pursued my PhD at the National University of Singapore, advised by Professor David Hsu. My PhD research brought together models of perception, decision-making, and interaction to enable robots to follow human instructions, collaborate as capable partners, and teach people new skills. Applications included Chinese calligraphy, air hockey, and driving.

I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have previously interned at NVIDIA NVIDIA Research and Toyota Research Institute Toyota Research Institute, where I gained invaluable experiences.

We are hiring interns and full-time researchers at NVIDIA Research Singapore! Drop me an email if you are interested!
