I am a second year ETH AI Center Doctoral fellow, supervised by Prof. Konrad Schindler (ETH, PRS) and Prof. Jan Dirk Wegner (UZH, Ecovision). My research lies at the frontier of computer vision and remote sensing to solve scientific questions in the environmental sciences. In particular, my current work focuses on high-resolution global mapping of above-ground biomass.
I am also the co-founder and an active member of the AI + Environment Summit, a non-profit that organizes the eponymous event. The next iteration of the summit will take place on October 1st, so mark your calendars!
I did my MSc at ETH Zurich, and my undergrad at Γcole Polytechnique (Paris).
