I am currently a Director of Engineering, Head of Planning & Controls at Skydio. I received a Ph.D. in motion planning and control for Micro Aerial Vehicles, under the supervision of Prof. Davide Scaramuzza at the Robotics and Perception Group, University of Zurich. During my doctoral studies, I worked at the intersection between perception and action. More specifically, I developed techniques to exploit motion planning and control to cope with the limitations of onboard sensors for high-speed flight with small-scale, lightweight, vision-based autonomous quadrotors. Check out my PhD thesis for further details.
