Hello there!

I am a senior at MIT studying mechanical engineering + robotics. Currently working on deep learning for robotic manipulation with the Improbable AI Lab at MIT CSAIL and on bipedal robotic control policies with the Biomimetic Robotics Lab in the MIT MechE department.

My main academic interests are in intelligent robotic manipulation and environment use under uncertainty. Other than that, I do art, comics, and music, and have passions in education and research accessibility.

If your carrier pigeon is on holiday, I can be found by email at alinasar[at]mit[dot]edu . Come say hi!
