About Me
I am a Product Analyst in Product Development at OMP. Before joining OMP, I was a postdoctoral researcher in the Declarative Languages and Artificial Intelligence (DTAI) group at the Department of Computer Science at KU Leuven, where I worked on the integration of machine learning techniques and stochastic optimization methods in the context of the ERC-funded project Conversational human-aware technology for optimization (CHAT-Opt) in Prof. Tias Guns’ lab.
