+bio: I am a Postdoctoral Research Associate developing agentic AI and LLM workflows to automate process digitization. Prior to this, I pursued my PhD (under Prof. Lars Magnus Hvattum's supervision) focusing on advancing machine learning methods for tackling complex optimization problems. Specifically, I applied supervised and reinforcement learning to extract problem-specific knowledge and improve metaheuristics. Nowadays, my research focuses on the application of autonomous agents to optimize decision-making in complex engineering systems.
