I am a PhD Student in Computer Vision in the CVL at Technical University of Vienna (TU Wien), supervised by Margrit Gelautz. I am funded by the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT), where I am further advised by Csaba Beleznai.

My research lies in the intersection of classical Computer Vision, Deep Learning and Computer Graphics. The goal is to develop novel methods for highly generic object pose estimation. We are specifically interested in the geometry of objects and exploit rendering engines to generate large quantities of synthetic data.

Before I joined TU Wien, I received both the BSc. and MSc. in Mechatronics/Robotics from the University of Applied Sciences Technikum Vienna (with distinction).
