About

I am an operations research engineer at AstraZeneca based in Cambridge, UK.

Until Dec 2019 I was a Lecturer and Senior Scientist (Oberassistent) in the Automatic Control Lab at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. This site is mainly a home for my past and ongoing academic activities.

My research interests lie at the intersection of control, optimization, and reinforcement learning. The range of topics includes approximate dynamic programming, model predictive control, robust and stochastic optimization, and polynomial optimization. I am particularly interested in real-time decision problems driven by forecast information, with applications in robotics, electrical power networks, and transportation systems.
