About

Welcome to my personal website! I am an aerospace engineer specialising in nonlinear Bayesian estimation and navigation systems. I bridge the gap between advanced mathematical theory and real-world implementation by developing and testing multiple estimation algorithms including particle flow-based and Gaussian mixture filters.

I am interested in nonlinear estimation problems and aerospace and space applications (+ astronomy!). I have a dream, one day I contribute to a big project that makes a real difference in the world air/space craft application.

My research experience includes roles as a postdoctoral researcher at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), a visiting student researcher at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and the KAIST Graduate School of Mobility, focusing on applications in multi-target tracking, autonomous robotic localisation and space navigation systems. For the further details on my experience and education, please refer to my CV on the left column.

Bottom line, I am also a (ultra-)runner, have finished multiple marathon and ultra distance events. Please check out my Posts for more story! Not only about running, but also about my research and other interests.
