Intro

Hi, I am a young robotic engineer enthusiast to discover and learn new things. I am currently doing a mandatory Swiss civil service and using this opportunity to experiment coding all kinds of things, including this website. Throughout my studies, I was always motivated to tackle new challenges and accomplish various projects. I had the opportunity to do very low-level programming using logical gates to create a game embedded in an alarm clock or assembly to navigate an e-puck robot. However, I also had the possibility to work with more advanced robots, on wheels or quadcopter, using Python. In addition to those hardware projects, I had the possibility to experiment with various robot simulation or deep learning tasks.

Before all those robotic-related projects, I achieved a micro-engineering bachelor during which I had all kinds of experiences around more mechanical engineering, working with optics, soft-muscles, and a fair bit of control classes, from simple PID up to MPC and Adaptive control design. Overall, this general view of engineering always motivated me as it gives a big picture of all aspects of technology, from materials science up to state-of-the-art deep learning. All of those projects can be explored in a bit more detail in the Projects section if you are interested.

Passions and hobbies

In addition to learning new things, I am very invested in pushing myself in bouldering and lead climbing. Discovering this sport during my study was a revelation, as it requires being very aware of my body and total control of it. In addition, being in the middle of the mountains or forests allows me to clear my mind and be more focused.

Furthermore, I am very interested in art in general. From the history of art up to the very contemporary art scene, I am always eager to discover what is happening! If you want to meet me, you can be sure to find me at the Venice Art Biennale or in a museum in every city I visit. Luckily, I had the opportunity to visit a lot of them as I traveled all around the world almost since my first travel to India in 1999. Ever since, I am always more than enthusiastic to go on an adventure, leading me to visit 37 countries! My passion for Asia, due to its amazing food and landscapes, made me go to China and India multiple times, always wanting to go back!

What is next?

As soon as my Swiss civil duty is completed in April 2024, I'm thrilled to start a PhD around machine learning and deep learning for medical imaging. Specifically, I'll be investigating the prediction power of Heart images hoping to be able to better forecast major cardiac events and reduce their impact. Being able to apply state-of-the-art methodologies to real problems and trying to improve everyone's quality of life is a real motivation and step towards my personal life goals!
