WELCOME...

My research focuses on convex optimization and machine learning with applications in computer music and computer audition. Previously, I have worked on applications in bioinformatics and financial engineering.

I did my Ph.D. in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at U. C. Berkeley, working with Professor Laurent El Ghaoui and Professor Michael Jordan, and my undergraduate studies in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the K.U.Leuven in Belgium.
