Curriculum Vitae
Since 2020 I am a Research Assistant/PhD student at the Munich School of Robotics and Machine Intelligence supervised by Sami Haddadin. My focus lies on robotic hands, prosthetics, tactile Sensing, 3D printing and development engineering.
I finished my Bachelor in Dual Studies Mechatronics in 2014 at the University of Applied Sciences Bremen in cooperation with the Daimler AG and IHK Bremen. It included the training as a skilled worker in mechatronics and I was granted the team award of the vocational training.
Until 2017 I did my master of Biomedical Engineering at the Leibniz Universität Hannover and concluded with a thesis on non-invasive feedback methods in upper limb prosthetics at the Institute of Automatic Control. Meanwhile, I was working at the Robotics Innovation Center Bremen as a scientific assistant on an active exoskeleton for rehabilitation.
From 2017 to 2018 I was part of the Daimler Young Professionals trainee program which included Project management, MPS, DeltaLyze, GreenBelt, Systematic error
correction, analysis techniques and a project assignment as process engineer in launch management at Beijing Benz Automotive.
Until 2019, I worked as an operations engineer in maintenance with focus on robotics, measuring technology, innovation management and the supervision of students at the Daimler AG Bremen.
Since 2018 I am voluntarily working for the Naya Qadam Trust which is based in Pakistan and aims to offer free prosthetics to the developing world. My focus lies on technical advice, 3D printing and 3D modelling of upper-limb prostheses, and on-site instructions.
