Profile
I am a second-year student at Aalto University, Machine Learning, Data Science and Artificial Intelligence MSc. My main interest is probabilistic machine learning.
I am a research-oriented person who is looking forward to collaboratively creating new technologies. I am seeking opportunities with high motivation to combine up-to-date theoretical knowledge with practical applications.

Employment
Research Assistant, Aalto University
January 2026 - Ongoing
- Conducting research in the Bayesian Workflow group , focusing on variance reduction techniques for Bayesian inference using control variates.
- Developing and evaluating novel control variate methods to reduce variance and improve convergence diagnostics in Stan-based MCMC models.
- Writing a master’s thesis titled “Control Variates in MCMC Sampling and Their Effects on R-hat"
Open Source Developer, Google Summer of Code
May 2025 - September 2025
- Worked on Stan , the leading software library for Bayesian machine learning on visual analysis of Bayesian models.
- Actively contributed to bayesplot , a package under Stan for visualising Bayesian models.
- Added new plots and functions to bayesplot by using
ggplot2andggdistlibraries to enhance explorative analysis of Bayesian systems. - Worked on documentation and improving the experience of open source beneficiaries.
Research Assistant, Aalto University
June 2024 - September 2024
- Worked at Probabilistic Machine Learning group on the topic of model misspecification in Bayesian experimental design.
- I searched and classified academic papers on Bayesian models, experimental design, and model misspecification.
- Deployed a simulation model on Mössbauer Spectroscopy.
- Implemented a likelihood-free Bayesian method (LFIRE) to optimise the experimental design of Mössbauer shift detection.
Teaching Assistant, Aalto University
September 2022 - January 2026
- Courses: Machine Learning D (2022, 2023), Programming 2 (2023), Bayesian Data Analysis (2025)
- Organized live exercise sessions, instructing students in their assignments on Python, R, and Scala development.
- Helped students to develop their own machine learning projects using Stan, scikit-learn, NumPy, and Pandas.
- Answered questions through online platforms so learning doesn’t stop after the live sessions.
- Awarded “Teaching Assistant Group of the Year 2023” for Machine Learning D 2023 edition.
