I graduated from the University from Zaragoza in 2009 on Telecommunication Engineering, having completed my Master's Thesis at the Lifetronics department from the Fraunhofer IPMS institute. After working for over a year at the Institute for Biomedical Engineering at the Dresden University of Technology, I moved to Berlin to attend the Master on Computational Neuroscience at the Bernstein Center. During this second Master's degree I carried out successive lab rotations at Humboldt University in Berlin, Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute in Kyoto, Japan, and the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf, where I also worked on my Master's Thesis in robot cognition and sensorimotor interaction. I joined the Italian Institute of Technology in June 2013 to pursue a PhD on machine learning for robotics with the iCub humanoid robot, which I completed in April 2017.
After a brief period of working as a Fellow at IIT, I moved to Bristol in November 2017 to join Dyson Ltd, where I have been working on the Robotics Research team, developing and implementing algorithms for robotic perception and manipulation for future robotic products, up to the present day.
