About Me

I am a Ph.D. student at the Professorship of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing at Technical University of Munich (TUM), supervised by Prof. Dr. Benjamin Busam. My research is conducted in collaboration with Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab London.

My research focuses on active pose-free 3D reconstruction with dynamic distractors — using monocular RGB input to simultaneously explore unknown environments, build clean static 3D Gaussian Splatting representations, and handle dynamic objects in real time.

Previously, I completed my M.Sc. at TUM’s Chair for Computer Aided Medical Procedures (CAMP) under Prof. Dr. Nassir Navab.
