🌟 About Me

I’m a computer scientist and researcher exploring how intelligence can emerge in physical systems β€” from robotic arms to neural networks.
I’m driven by the intersection of AI, control theory, and neuroscience, and I love building things that move, learn, and adapt.

Let’s connect and collaborate on cool projects in AI, robotics, or applied ML! πŸš€
