Ph.D. student working in the social robotics team at the RPL department under Iolanda Leite. Started in December 2020.

Currently, I'm exploring how Augmented Reality (AR) can be part of human-robot interaction (HRI). Specifically, how robots learning can be improved by interactive learning with a human ("Human-in-the-loop") using AR as a tool to bridge the communication gap.

Before joining KTH, I worked at Klarna, which is in the fintech industry. I worked both with high-performance APIs and databases in the cloud (AWS), but I also created machine learning models for credit scoring. Due to my large reserve of curiosity, I ended up joining the path of research.
