Summary

3D-vision engineer turned builder โ€” I take frontier spatial-AI research and ship it to the people who need it.

  • First to bring SpatialLM models to paying customers
  • Reverse-engineered SOTA training regimes
  • Worked across Assistive AI to Defense Tech
  • Led 2 startup ventures previously
  • Worked across several early-stage teams over the past 7 years

Key highlights

  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Now โ€” Building in UK-EU Defence Tech (Stealth)
    Independent since March 2026 โ€” applying my 3D-perception and spatial-AI edge to UK-EU defence tech.
  • ๐Ÿš€ First to Productise 3D VLM + Autoregressive Scene-Graph Generation
    Shipped generative 3D reconstruction to paying BIM/CAD drafters โ€” frontier vision-language and autoregressive scene-graph models turned into a tool real users rely on.
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Built the Customer Feedback Loop
    Reassigned myself from R&D to MLOps to fix the real delivery bottleneck, then took modules straight to drafters โ€” growing usage through fast iteration.
  • ๐Ÿ“„ ADL4D โ€” Published 4D Dataset
    Co-first author of a 1.1M-frame 4D activity dataset (arXiv); designed its weakly-supervised hand-pose annotation pipeline.
  • ๐Ÿ† Kurt Fischer Prize
    TU Munich award for markerless multi-subject hand-tracking research.
  • ๐Ÿš€ Nvidia Inception โ€” Accepted
    Accepted into the Nvidia DGX Inception program; led the experiment design and team preparation.
  • ๐Ÿ“š Designed a TUM Course
    Co-created 'Project Lab: Human Activity Understanding,' now part of the TUM CIT curriculum.
