Building AI systems that are private, adaptive and trustworthy — federated learning, continual learning and IoT security.
About Me
I am currently an AI Application Expert at the Sweden AI Factory, hosted by NAISS, where I organize and deliver training, provide consultancy on AI projects, and build automation that helps researchers and organizations make the most of AI. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Information Technology, Uppsala University, and I received my Ph.D. in Computing Science from Umeå University.
My research spans federated learning, continual learning, IoT cyber security, image privacy, and autobiographical memory recall, with a focus on building AI systems that are private, adaptive, and trustworthy.
