About Me:
I am currently a Computer Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the Robotics, Embedded Autonomy, and Communication Theory (REACT) Lab
led by Professor Stephanie Gil at Harvard University focusing on development of multiagent
resilient decision-making and coordination algorithms. Prior to joining Harvard I completed my PhD in Computer
Science at the Multi-Agent Robotic Systems Laboratory led by Professor Alfred M. Bruckstein at the Technion-
Israel Institute of Technology. I received the B.Sc. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from
Ben-Gurion University, Beer Sheva, Israel.
My research interests are in multi-agent teamwork, robot learning, particularly model-based reinforcement learning
for autonomous robotic systems, computer vision, deep learning, intelligent transportation systems,
and bio-inspired robotics. My research focuses on developing collaborative algorithms for motion planning,
coordination of autonomous vehicles, air traffic management, and sequential decision-making for multi-robot learning,
with the goal of enabling large-scale cooperative robotic systems that operate efficiently in dynamic,
uncertain, and adversarial environments.
The long-term goal of my research is to develop robotic systems that improve human quality of life by advancing
algorithms for cooperative robotic teams, while drawing inspiration from behaviors in nature.
In particular, I aim to design resilient coordination and decision-making frameworks that combine strong
theoretical guarantees with practical implementation, ensuring scalable, stable, safe, and robust multi-robot autonomy.
