Speakers Team

Taras is a PhD researcher in the field of Machine Learning for human-robot interaction. His research involves teaching social robots to have appropriate gestures when speaking. From time to time, he shares his research findings at different events.
 
Taras likes spending his time outdoors. He enjoys travelling, hiking, dancing lindy-hop, biking and snowboarding.
When Taras is not doing outdoor activities, you can often find him doing public speaking at Loki Toastmasters or improvising crazy scenes at the improv club he founded in Stockholm, IMPROVe. Another big interest is meditation and yoga.
 
According to Taras, a perfect morning starts at 6:30 with meditation followed by a yoga session.
