Dhruv Dange

I’m Dhruv Dange, a graduate student in Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University advised by Dr. Matthew J. Travers at the MattLab. My interests are in reinforcement learning for manipulation, planning, and building robotic systems. I’ve worked on reinforcement learning on Boston Dynamics’ Spot and built multi-arm robotic systems for server disassembly.

Outside of research, I’m a mountaineer who has climbed Mt. Friendship (5289 m) and trekked passes like Rupin and Kuari in the Himalayas. I also pursue fishkeeping and aquascaping, hobbies that keep me engaged with design and detail in a different context.
