About me

I'm currently a 5th year PhD student in the Computer Science department studying artificial intelligence at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. I work in the Soar Lab advised by professor John Laird. My research interests include interactive task learning, game learning, robotics, and cognitive architectures. I moved from my home state of Massachusetts to Michigan in 2011 to begin my graduate studies after completing my undergraduate degree at Northeastern University in Boston.
