CV
I am an engineer focused on building the new generation of wireless optical communications for the Internet of things. I work fluently with prototyping platforms and have authored numerous scientific publications taking part in publicly funded research projects. My goal is to transfer technology to society by means of entrepreneurship and teaching. My favorite space is the workshop.
