My mission is to reach human performance at fast changing, uncertain, rich and high-dimensional tasks with robots. I believe this goal can be achieved by developing Machine Learning methods, especially Reinforcement Learning, for soft muscular systems.
I pursued a PhD in Machine Learning and Robotics with Jan Peters and Bernhard Schölkopf at the Robot Learning lab within the Empirical Inference dept. During my PhD I interned at X, the Moonshot Factory (formerly Google X). Before, I received a MSc degree in Biomedical Engineering at the Imperial College London and a BEng degree in Information and Electrical Engineering from HAW Hamburg in conjunction with Siemens.
