Hi, I'm Maria 👾

AI Researcher, Software Engineer (R&D)

Currently, I work on affective computing and HRI, collaborating with national-level academic institutions and contributing to peer-reviewed publications. I'm also leading the development of next-generation computer vision technologies for healthcare at Mecra.

I hold an M.Comp.Sc. in Computer Vision (hons.) from HSE University and an M.Sc. from the University of Stuttgart (Robotic Construction & Fabrication). My research interests include multimodal learning, human–robot interaction, and learning-based perception for autonomous systems. Previously, I spent several years working at a robotics company in Shanghai, focusing on computer vision systems for industrial robotic systems and autonomous mobile construction robots.

Joining Codebar as an Organizer

If you haven’t heard about Codebar yet, it’s a wonderful charity that helps build a diverse tech community by offering free regular programming workshops for minority groups in tech. Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of being a tutor and presenter at several Codebar workshops in Shanghai. Today, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve joined the team of Codebar organizers. I’ve witnessed firsthand the incredible impact Codebar has on female and underrepresented coders, and I’m proud to step into this larger role.

Sharing at Codebar’s Women in STEM Event

Last weekend was truly special as I had the privilege of participating in the Women's Day event organized by Shanghai Codebar. It was an absolute honor to share the stage with esteemed professionals like Dr. Hao Pei and Devanshi Pratiher. Dr. Hao Pei's groundbreaking research and Devanshi Pratiher's incredible journey in data science were both deeply inspiring.
