I am an assistant professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department at the University of California at Berkeley. I run the ICON Lab. The focus of my research is to develop control algorithms that allow autonomous systems to safely and intelligently interact with each other and with humans. I draw from the fields of control theory, robotics, game theory, and machine learning. I was a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford from 2019 to 2020. I received my PhD in Mechanical engineering at UC Berkeley in 2019 and received my bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at Sharif University of Technology in 2013.
