I am an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Iceland. I joined the IDeLM project as a postdoctoral researcher in 2023 before taking up my current assistant professorship. My research sits at the intersection of machine learning and optimisation: how to learn good decision rules from data instead of hand-crafting them. Before academia I spent a decade in industry — deCODE genetics, CCP Games (now Fenris Creations), Travelshift, AGR Dynamics and Valka — and that experience shapes how I teach: real data, real stakeholders, real uncertainty.
