About

My research is focused on building resilient edge architecture and intelligent navigation models for autonomous, unmanned aerial vehicles (AUAVs) for remote sensing applications in conservation and ecology. AUAVs use software to decide where to fly, when to collect data, and when to end a mission without humans in the loop. Edge architecture optimized for AUAVs brings compute close to the data source, enabling real-time analysis and reducing latency, and efficiently manages the unpredictable workloads generated by autonomous navigation models.

I am a third-year PhD student at The Ohio State University studying computer science and engineering, coadvised by Dr. Christopher Stewart and Dr. Tanya Berger-Wolf.
