Thanks to the best supervisor! 🙏

If you are interested, feel free to check out my award-winning thesis. It’s only ~300 pages 😅

TL; DR: If you are attending #OR2025 in Bielefeld, you can still join me today at TC-4 in H6, where I will present (some of) the results.

Where it started vs. how it’s going…

After ~2.5 years, it’s finally done: Our #orms paper on heuristics for Γ-robust #bilevel problems (with Ivana Ljubić and @schmaidt.bsky.social) is published online in @informs.bsky.social Journal on Computing! Here it is: pubsonline.informs.org/doi/10.1287/...

Can #bilevel #optimization help to solve challenging #robust optimization problems?

Maybe … here’s our first numerical study on this topic:

"Solving Decision-Dependent Robust Problems as Bilevel Optimization Problems"

Jointly with H. Lefebvre, S. Stevens, and J. Thürauf.

Despite my rather young academic career, I have seen both excellent and, well, not-so-great reviews. Knowing how frustrating unconstructive feedback can be, I am happy to be recognized as one of the better reviewers. Don’t be like #reviewer2!

When writing, I love listening to music by Hans Zimmer, Alexandre Desplat, or Adrián Berenguer. Their music helps me stay focused while also giving me a certain drive.
