Research
Embedded systems, security, hardware design, and software tools.
My goal is to consolidate a research group in embedded systems' engineering that fosters authenticity, autonomy, curiosity, and the desire to learn. I'm committed to providing a space that encourages each person to express their unique perspectives and embrace new ideas. We'll strive to reach the highest level of understanding in embedded systems engineering and build tools, concepts, and knowledge that are recognized in top-level venues, industrial collaborations, and open source projects. Join me in creating a productive and supportive environment that drives innovation!
