I’m an associate professor at the University of Oslo where I work on robotics and artificial intelligence. My main focus in on legged robots and how they can adapt to different real-world environments and tasks.

In addition to this, I hold a researcher position at the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment where I work on autonomous robots for defence applications.
