Hi there I'm Simon! 👋

I'm currently Research Scientist Intern @ Google Robotics and PhD candidate in robotics and optimization @ Stanford University working with Zachary Manchester and Mac Schwager.

I am passionate about developing fast optimization algorithms for robotics applications. I am designing and implementing a differentiable physics simulator and leveraging this tool for model predictive control, trajectory optimization and reinforcement learning tasks in robotic locomotion and manipulation. Previously, I implemented optimization algorithms enabling game-theoretic reasoning for autonomous vehicles
