Elvis Hsieh

I am a fourth-year undergraduate studying Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at UC Berkeley.

I am interested in sequential decision-making, AI safety, and embodied AI focusing on humanoid robots and dexterous manipulation. I do research at the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Lab, where I'm advised by Trevor Darrell and Koushil Sreenath.

Previously, I had the previlege to work at the Center for Human-Compatible AI and VLL at National Taiwan University. I spent the past summer at WorldQuant researching US equities as a Quantitative Research Intern.
