C++FEMPhysicsVTK
Building high-performance systems at the intersection of engineering, simulation, and machine learning.
I love building things — from chess engines to FEM solvers and 3D-printed prototypes. My work lives at the boundary of programming, engineering, and playful problem solving.
Currently a Research Associate at SLA, RWTH Aachen University in Aachen, Germany, working on structural mechanics, FEM solver workflows, and automation. I hold a Master's degree summa cum laude in Mechanical Engineering, specializing in Aerospace and Simulation Sciences.
C++, CUDA, Python — high-performance systems, training pipelines, and tooling.
Structural mechanics, FEM, topology optimization — modeling meets numerics.
Prototyping, functional parts — tolerances and quality-driven design.
Puzzles and precise algorithms — the same energy goes into code.
