About me

I'm currently Senior AI Scientist at Silo AI, specializing in machine learning for industrial process control, predictive maintenance, and anomaly detection.

I obtained my M.Sc. in Engineering Physics from KTH Royal Institute of Technology in 2014. I spent the spring semester of 2013 at EPFL, Lausanne. My studies focused on mathematics and statistics and I wrote my master thesis on derivative pricing at ORC Group.

I obtained my Ph.D. in Applied and Computational Mathematics from KTH Royal Institute of Technology in 2019. I worked on mean-field type games with Professor Boualem Djehiche; we developed new models for the movement of crowds in congested areas.

I was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Princeton University, in the Operations Research and Financial Engineering (ORFE) department 2020-2021. I studied differential graphon games and their applications in epidemiology with Professor René Carmona and his group.

My research interests include mean field games, mean-field type control theory, network games, learning in games, stochastic models for crowd dynamics, machine learning methods for FBSDEs and FBPDEs, GAN training.
