Description

I am currently a second year computer science Ph.D. student at UC Berkeley. My advisor is Pieter Abbeel. I am interested in applications of machine learning for robotics and control. Projects I have worked on include learning from demonstration for autonomous helicopter aerobatics and policy gradient methods for reinforcement learning. Please visit my publications page for more details. I graduated from Harvard University in Spring 2008 with a bachelor's in Computer Science and Economics. I worked with David Parkes on transitive trust mechanisms and accounting systems.
