About me

I am a final year PhD student at TU Munich in the Discrete Optimization group supervised by Stefan Weltge and Sophie Huiberts.

I am interested in polyhedral geometry and related algorithms. In my work, I aim to narrow the gap between what can be observed in practice about such algorithms and what can be explained by theory. You can read about my work on optimal smoothed analysis of the simplex method in this Quanta article "Researchers Discover the Optimal Way To Optimize (Oct 13, 2025) by Steve Nadis.
