I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University of Colorado Boulder. My research combines biology and robotics to, uncover the principles of robustness that make animals successful at locomotion in natural environments, and, in turn, inspire the design of next generation of novel robots for effective real-world operation.
I am presently transitioning from my position as a post-doctoral scholar at Prof. Rob Wood's Microrobotics lab in Harvard University to starting my group at CU Boulder (officially January 2020).
I performed my doctoral research at UC Berkeley working with Prof. Bob Full at the PolyPEDAL lab and completed my undergraduation from Indian Institute of Technology Bombay.
