About Me

I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Sapienza University of Rome, advised by Flavio Chierichetti and Alessandro Panconesi. I obtained my M.Sc. and B.Sc. in Computer Science from the same university, respectively, with a thesis on online algorithms for blog synchronization and a thesis on the (NP-)hardness of a mobile video game.

I have served (or am serving) as reviewer for SODA (2025), ITCS (2025), KDD (2024), TheWebConf (2024, 2025), and SDM (2024)
