I am Mallak Alqais, a second-year PhD student in Industrial and Systems Engineering within the School of Systems Science and Industrial Engineering at the Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science, Binghamton University. I am currently working on a research project involving the Hello Robot Stretch platform in the HCMT Lab under the supervision of Professor Stephanie Tulk Jesso. I am in the early stages of this project and actively developing my research and technical skills in this area.
