About

I am a Robotics and Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) researcher based in Melbourne, Australia. 

My PhD research spans quantifying demonstration quality, enabling robots to learn from imperfect demonstrations, investigating how robot kinematics influence human teaching, and developing real-time feedback systems that help novice users teach robots more effectively.

My research has been published at leading international robotics venues, including IROS 2024 and HRI 2026. My final PhD work on augmented reality feedback systems received an Honourable Mention Award at ACM Designing Interactive Systems (DIS) 2026 in Singapore.

Before starting my PhD, my research work at the Human-Centered Robotics Lab focused on developing human-centred robotic systems, including collaborative robots (5-DoF & 7-DoF) and lower limb prosthetic systems.

Research Interests: Robotics, Human-Robot Interaction, Robot Learning
