<h2>I Make Robots Move</h2>
<p>
From competitive robotics to cutting-edge research, I develop intelligent systems that navigate
complex environments. Working with CU Boulder's

>HIRO Group</a
>
and competing in
<a
href="https://github.com/alexDickhans/pronounce-this"

<h2>I Design Sensors</h2>
<p>
Pushing the boundaries of tactile sensing through innovative fabrication techniques.
In the
<a href="https://hiro-group.ronc.one/" target="_blank"
>HIRO Group</a
>,
I develop next-generation sensors using 3D printing, molding, and flexible electronics
to give robots the sense of touch.
