Robotics Engineering

My research explores how soft robotics can lend itself to the development of better prosthetic and bionic limbs, enhancing the human experience for wearers when performing Activities of Daily Living (ADL). I currently focus on soft sensors and anthropomorphic hands, redesigning them to be more adaptable to prosthetic function and the human form.

Aside from my research, I actively contribute to open source robotics, and maintain a personal website and blog, where I explore speculative research and document my life experiences.
