I’m a Postdoctoral Researcher and incoming Tenured Scientist, expected to start by the beginning of 2026. My work focuses on creating proactive, personalised robots that can tailor their behaviour to each individual’s unique needs and preferences. Additionally, I investigate how robots can explain their decisions, helping users build clearer mental models of these systems. Ultimately, I aim to make robots more transparent and understandable, enabling users to interact confidently with technology
