Short Biography

I am a Ph.D. student at DISAL working on infra-red perception for drones, with a focus on detecting hazards (e.g. gases, fires).

Previously, I worked with the Swedish Maritime Robotics Center where I focused on informative path planning for autonomous underwater vehicles. I have also worked on perception for drones in forestry tasks as a research engineer at the Robotics, Perception and Learning department of KTH in Sweden.

My education background is in physics and mechanical engineering, which I studied at KTH.

Topics of Interest

Robotic perception & navigation, multi-robot systems, field robotics and mechatronic design.

Teaching 

Signals and Systems (ENG-366), Distributed Intelligent Systems (ENG-466). I also supervise individual master level projects in robotics.
