About

I am a Principal Engineer / Scientist / Technical Advisor in AI / ML at Cruise, prior to which I ran robot perception and motion planning teams at Amazon. Before that, I led machine learning efforts at Toyota Research Institute and Toyota Motor Corporation and worked as a senior roboticist at Google / X.

In a prior life, I was an equity derivatives trader at Goldman Sachs in Tokyo, Japan for 7 years, trading volatility both "old-school" as well as algorithmically.

I hold a Ph.D. in robotics from Carnegie Mellon's Robotics Institute as well as BA / MA degrees in computer science from the University of Cambridge.
