About me


Hello and welcome to my personal website! I currently work as an Independent Researcher and Project Manager for several organizations. In this role, I lead research and innovation initiatives while also overseeing the entire lifecycle of EU projects. Prior to this, I had the opportunity to work as a Marie Sklodowska Curie Fellow at Silversky3D Virtual Reality Technologies Ltd as part of the Horizon 2020  NeoPrismC Innovative Training Network. In my research, I utilize a variety of methodologies including virtual reality, eye-tracking, computerized cognitive tasks, image processing algorithms, and crowdsourcing tools.
My interests lie at the intersection of psychology/neuroscience, technology, and engineering. My projects often focus on studying/improving visuospatial perception/cognition and overall health through technology. I have a passion for exploring the ways in which people interact with and are impacted by technology. I am particularly interested in extended reality (XR) technologies (VR/AR/MR) and their applications in different domains like sports, health, rehabilitation, education, training, etc. Additionally,  I am interested in exploring the potential of using eye and physiological measures to enhance and personalize these technologies, thereby unlocking human potential. 

I am a skilled researcher, technologist, and developer who can act as a key link between cross-functional teams. While I can independently drive projects to completion, I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy working with others toward a common goal. In addition to my curiosity and ability to use data to answer fundamental questions, I am committed to using my skills to make a positive impact in the world and develop software for the greater good.

I believe that having a sense of purpose is key to motivating and inspiring individuals to perform at their best. That's why my personal motto is "Do not assign me a task, give me a purpose"! On my personal website, you can learn more about the values and principles that guide my work and life, as well as my professional background and accomplishments.
