SUMMARY
During my co-op at Amazon Robotics, I had the incredible opportunity to work alongside a talented and collaborative team on projects that pushed me to grow both personally and professionally. I took on the challenge of navigating an ambiguous research environment, learning to embrace uncertainty while uncovering user pain points and opportunities for improvement. Through close collaboration with cross-functional teams, I was able to contribute to designing intuitive solutions that enhanced human-robot interaction and streamlined workflows. This experience not only honed my skills but also deepened my passion for creating meaningful, user-centered designs.
