About Me

I’m a PhD Student at University of California, Santa Barbara. I work under the supervision of Prof. Jason R. Marden and Prof. Francesco Bullo. My current research interests include Design and Analysis of Large-Scale Systems, Distributed Control, Game Theory and its Control Engineering Applications. [Resume]
