Curriculum Vitae
Since October 2022, I have been a Ph.D. candidate at the Chair of Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Real-Time Systems at the Technical University of Munich (TUM), under the supervision of Prof. Alois Knoll. My research centers on sampling-based almost-surely asymptotically optimal (a.s.a.o) motion planning, high-DOF multi-robot manipulation and collaboration, coordinated control of mobile robot fleets, and other related areas in advanced robotics.

Previously, I received my Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering and Automation Technology from the Technical University of Clausthal, Germany in 2022, and my Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, Germany in 2020. Currently, I have also worked as a researcher and project associate in several nationally and EU-funded robotics projects, including Bavarian State Project KI.FABRIK, DARKO-Project, etc.
My work explores planning and control strategies for multi-modal robotic systems, with a particular focus on real-time performance and geometric reasoning. I have published in leading robotics conferences and journals such as ICRA, IROS, T-ASE, T-Mech, RA-L, etc..
If you are interested in working on robotics-related research topics or thesis projects, feel free to reach out to me via email with your background and interests.

On-going Theses
Currently, we have a small group of bachelor's/master's students working on several topics, including LLM-based risk map semantic segmentations, task and motion planning, multi-robot coordination, and sampling-based algorithms. Some of the theses have successfully been published in peer-reviewed conferences and journals.
