I’m a sixth year PhD student in EECS interested in robotics, computer vision, and explainable AI. I also love dancing, hiking, and listening to podcasts. Feel free to reach out to chat about any or all of these things :)
I’m a 5th year PhD Student messin around with model evals for everything AI. I also dabble in explainable AI, automated data analysis, personalization, and nail painting.
Hey! I’m Tejas, a senior studying EECS interested mainly in the intersection of machine learning and distributed systems. In my free time, I enjoy reading, basketball, table tennis, piano, and drawing/painting. I’ve previously been on course staff for CS 189/289A and EECS 127, and I’m excited to work with everyone!
Hi everyone! I’m Hiya, a 4th year studying EECS, and I’m interested in robot learning and controls. I love running and cooking, and I’ve recently been getting into design and yoga. I’m excited to meet you all and hope everyone has a great semester! :)
Hey everyone! I’m a senior studying CS from San Mateo, CA, and I’m looking toward to a great semester teaching 189. Feel free to reach out about anything!
Hi! I’m Aakarsh, and I’m an incoming 4th year studying EECS. I like computational biology, running, ultimate frisbee, and crossword puzzles. Hope I can help everyone enjoy this class just as much as I did :)
Hey everyone, I’m a third-year studying EECS and Business and my current curiosities include agentic AI, reinforcement learning, and computer vision. Outside of course-staffing for CS 189/289A, you can find me doing research on AI agents and cybersecurity, learning about dinosaurs, admiring astrophotography, visiting art museums, trying to become a rock climber, and playing jazz piano!
Hi! I’m Ishir, a 3rd year EECS major from the Bay. In my free time, I love playing badminton and the guitar. Looking forward to meeting everyone this semester!
Im just being useful before the robots take over (markogata.com). If you are also interested in Robotics, Computer Vision, Brain Computer Interfaces, Crypto, or hard-tech startups, feel free to email me and we can get some boba!
I’m a 4th-year studying CS and I’m broadly interested in generative models in computer vision. I like to pet cats I see on walks and watch movies with subtitles.
Hey everyone! I’m a senior studying computer science and public policy. I love music (especially classical), cats, dogs, bullet journaling, and baking. This year I’m reading a book every month — would appreciate new recommendations :)
Hey! I’m Vrushank and I’m a senior studying CS and Applied Math from the Bay Area. In my free time, I like playing basketball and football, exploring new places, and watching movies. Looking forward to a great semester with everyone!
Hey! I’m Kourosh and I’m really interested in AI and robotics. When I’m not studying, you can find me playing golf at Tilden, collecting vinyls, or sampling new colognes. Excited for this semester!
Hi, I’m Justin, a second year student studying EECS from the bay, and I like music and video games. Here’s a joke about later course content: Why did the derivative cross the road? Because the road was part of the chain rule!
