From October 2020 to September 2023, I pursued my PhD at AlGCo team, LIRMM (Montpellier, France), under the supervision of Ignasi Sau and Dimitrios M. Thilikos.

My current research interests are mainly focused in (parameterized) algorithms in graphs, structural graph theory, and logic in computer science.

Here is my detailed CV.
