I’m a robotics engineer currently leading engineering and product teams at K-Scale Labs. I’ve worked on and led projects in mechanical, electrical, design, software, ML, marketing, and manufacturing.
My personal mission is to solve some of the biggest problems in the world, including:
I love building cool projects with cool people. Shoot me a message if you’re working on something cool!
Currently, I’m building mass-manufacturable, consumer-grade humanoid robots in the U.S. that perform agile locomotion and dexterous manipulation. My goal is to bring together whole-body robot control (RL) and vision-language (VLA) to achieve physical intelligence, and then open-source it to everyone.

K-Bot is the United States’ first consumer & open-source humanoid robot capable of RL locomotion and manipulation. I led the engineering and product teams at K-Scale to develop this robot. We built a complete open-source humanoid robot stack in 6 months from state-of-the-art machine learning models trained on our infrastructure, building the operating system, designing the hardware, and manufacturing it.

Following the success of the Zeroth-01 robot, I’m working on bringing the robot to mass production with more developer tools and capabilities. Currently, the prototypes have been used in Stanford’s CS234: Reinforcement Learning course.

Zeroth-01 is the world’s smallest 3D printable and open-source end-to-end humanoid robot. I and friends designed and built the stack from RL training and the operating system, designed the hardware, and manufactured it. The open-source community now boasts 5000+ members.

I built an industrial robot visual programming, testing, and deployment platform that allowed non-programmers to construct industrial robot behavior trees through a graphical interface, allowing testing in simulation, debugging, and deployment onto real robots.
I shipped features to partners and clients including Mecademic Robotics.

I built controllers, planners, inverse/forward kinematic/dynamics algorithms, and action client/server framework from scratch with ROS1 with C++ for the Kinvoa Gen3 robotic arms for dynamic grasping.
Built controllers: kinematics and dynamic control, redundancy resolution, force control and contacts, grasping. Built planners: trajectory generation, potential fields, collision detection and avoidance.
