Bio
I grew up in Čačak, Serbia, and studied Mechanical Engineering at the University of Kragujevac, where I finished both my B.Sc. and M.Sc.
After a few years working in Novi Sad and Belgrade, I wanted to learn something completely new, so I moved to Switzerland for a PhD at EPFL. I defended my thesis in January 2026 on the design of robotic and AI systems for food science and manufacturing.
Low-key flex: presenting my research in front of Jeff Bezos. He ate eggs prepared by my robot. Twice.
I'm now building a startup in food robotics with Germain. He handles the robots, I handle the AI.
Outside the lab
After 15 years, I'm relearning the accordion, a surprise I'm preparing for my PhD defense. Pssst.
The rest: Claude Code, and my girlfriend's to-do list. She's the boss 🙂
