Profile

I am an Experimental Officer at the Institute of Design, Robotics, and Manufacturing at the University of Leeds. Currently, I am part of the Pipebots project team, focused on developing small robots for pipeline inspection.

I completed my PhD at the Singapore University of Technology and Design, specializing in the design and development of hybrid, nature-inspired robots capable of efficient mobility across multiple modes. Before that, I obtained an MSc in Aeronautical Engineering from Politecnico di Milano in Italy.

Research interests

My research interests encompass aerial and ground robots, nature-inspired UAVs, system modeling and control through simulation, and flight control of UAVs.
