About

I'm a PhD student at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence of the University of Bremen. My main research interest is optimization and constraint base robot motion control and I'm the main developer of Giskard.

I first came into contact with the IAI during my studies at the University of Bremen, during the Bachelor and later Master project SUTURO. Afterwards, I did my Bachelor's and Master's thesis under the supervision of Georg Bartels, worked for the group as a student assistant and later got hired for a PhD position in 2017. After Georg left to founded the start-up Ubica, I took over his role as the main developer of Giskard.
