I am a postdoc at the University of Alberta working with Rich Sutton. My research interests are in artificial intelligence, focusing on methods for robots and other devices to sense, reason, act and learn in the physical world. This research covers both foundational aspects (how can an artificial agent build rich and useful representations of the human world from sensorimotor experience) and applied aspects (how can smartphone remind an Alzheimer's patient of the next step in their daily routine). Previously, I was a member of Ben Kuipers' intelligent robotics group at UT Austin for my PhD, and I held a postdoc with Henry Kautz at the University of Rochester.
