I am an Assistant Professor in the department of Computing Sciences at Bocconi.

I am broadly interested in computer science, from both a theoretical and applied perspective. My research focuses on algorithm design, computational complexity, learning theory and privacy.

I received my PhD from ETH Zurich where I was fortunate to have David Steurer as my advisor. After that, I spent a year as a Research Fellow at Bocconi hosted by Luca Trevisan. I am a frequent visitor of Google Research, where I spent part of my PhD and postdoc.
