About

I am a PhD student in the Machine Learning and Optimization laboratory at EPFL under the supervision of Martin Jaggi. Before joining EPFL, I worked as a lab associate at Disney Research. I received a B.Sc. from University College Roosevelt, an honours college from Utrecht University, and a M.Sc. from ETH Zürich in Computational Science & Engineering.
