I received my PhD in Structural Mechanics in August 2012 from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and joined Princeton University in October 2012 as a Postdoctoral Research Associate. My research to date has focused on the design and analysis of adaptive and passive structures combining form-finding and analysis methods with advanced computing. My research interests include adaptive structures, structural design and optimization as well as computer-aided engineering.
