My research focuses on dynamics, control, and optimization of robotics, with specific interests in energetics of dynamic systems, legged balance and gait stability, and integration of dynamics/control with numerical optimization. At CUSP, I aim to enable robots to operate efficiently and safely in complex urban environments such as disaster response, search and rescue, and construction, laying a foundation for advancements in robot design and control in the urban setting.
