About me

Hi, I am a graduate student at the Institute of Science and Technology, Austria. I work at the Computer Graphics and Digital Fabrication lab with Prof. Bernd Bickel. I am interested in topics related to the design and control of deformable objects. Check out the projects to know more about my research work. I am looking for Postdoc opprotunity in Fall 2025 and I am very happy to discuss potential project ideas for it!
