Trustworthy autonomy for aerospace and robotic systems through control, optimization, and learning.

I am an Assistant Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Oklahoma State University, based at the OSU-Tulsa campus. I develop methods for planning and control under uncertainty, with particular interests in stochastic optimal control and machine learning.

My group develops model-based, learning-enabled, and hybrid approaches for spacecraft, launch vehicles, UAVs, and robotic systems. We choose methods according to the problem's structure, available information, computational constraints, and safety and performance requirements.
