KARTHIK KARUMANCHI
I am a Master's student of Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University, specializing in modeling and controlling dynamical systems. I work as a graduate student researcher at CMU's Biorobotics Lab under the guidance of Prof. Howie Choset. I earned my Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, where I led the Formula SAE chapter in my senior year.
