I am a PhD student in the Robotics and Perception Group, under the supervision of Prof. Davide Scaramuzza.

My research focuses on robotics, computer vision, and machine learning.

Prior to this, I earned my MSc at ETH Zurich, where I had the privilege of working at the Autonomous Systems Lab, under the supervision of Prof. Roland Siegwart.

Research

My research interest lies in agile robot learning with strong generalization capabilities.

Specifically, I am working on developing high-performance, generalizable control policies for agile robots that can be effectively deployed in real-world environments.
