About me

I am a mechanical engineer turned roboticist, now pursuing a PhD in machine learning ("AI") at the ETH AI Center and Learning and Adaptive Systems Group. My research focuses on safe reinforcement learning, uncertainty quantification, Bayesian Optimization, and Active Learning.

Previously, I co-founded Obol, a Fintech startup, and worked as a principal robotics engineer at Temi. I hold a Master's degree in robotics from ETH Zürich and graduated summa cum laude from the Technion.

Originally from Haifa, I've also lived in Tel-Aviv. I enjoy climbing, slacklining, music, food, wine and eastern philosophy.
