I blend a rigorous background in evolution and anatomy with physical and computational modeling to investigate locomotion of stem tetrapods to inspire robotic design

I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher working with Aaron Johnson. My research interests include: ​

  1.  Using the fossil record and deep-time performance history to inform novel robot designs.

  2. The importance of spine structure in determining robot performance and how it interacts with the evolution of dynamic behaviors in ancient animals.

  3. The development of dynamic behavior abilities in extinct tetrapods.
